For instance, when a certain data or program is so large as to be received in ten pieces of compact disks, ten cases of compact disks would be required.
Therefore, those ten compact disk regarding a common data or program are apt to be mixed with other compact disks under different subjects of data in the stored state. In those cases, as a matter of course, confirmation by the titles shown on the side of compact disk cases would be possible, which is however somewhat tedious.
