摘要

A system for automatically migrating a portion of a collection of information located on source data carrier(s) into an assemblage of data carriers, having: a computer memory for pass-through of a first strip of the collection; the assemblage has at least a first storage medium to which at least a first sub-portion of the first strip is written from computer memory; and once the portion of the collection has been so migrated according to a predetermined structure, a remaining portion of the collection can be written to the source data carrier (to include the source data carrier in the assemblage), the remaining portion being ordered (crunched) in conformity with the predetermined structure.
