Maximum filename and path length? - on HD and burning discs
What is the maximum filename and path length, and is it the same on your computer's hard drive, an external hard drive, and burning files onto 4.7 Gb disks? I'm pretty sure it's shorter for burning discs.
Does it matter how deeply the folders are nested? For example it would be forbidden to have folders with 5-character names nested 6 folders deep but would be fine if they had 10-character names nested 3 folders deep.
And finally is there one overall limit which applies to the combined filename and folder path all together, or do filenames and paths have their own separate limits?
