Is an ISO suitable for storing files?

Question

Data archiving

There are a bunch of small and medium files, I drive on pieces of iron (home), small files are a pain, usually I zip everything and somehow quickly with one archive, but the sad thing is that the archives are difficult to edit (add or remove something).
I thought maybe it’s better that there is and thought about ISO images, maybe it’s worth trying them?

Main tasks:
- one file that does not compress, but simply collects files together
- you can add or demolish something quickly
- norms support for different operating systems. At least Mac and Windows

Or can you recommend something else for these purposes?

Answer 1

ISO storage is a rather perverse way of archiving data. And data backup and even more so.
