Why each option
CDFS (Compact Disc File System), also known as ISO 9660, is the file system standard specifically designed for optical media such as CDs and DVDs.
FAT32 is a file system used on hard drives and USB flash drives; while bootable CDs can contain FAT-formatted partitions, FAT32 is not the native optical media file system.
NTFS is the primary file system for Windows hard drives and does not apply to optical media.
HPFS (High Performance File System) was developed by IBM for OS/2 and is used on hard drives, not optical media.
CDFS is the file system used to organize data on optical discs. It was developed to provide a universal, read-only standard for data stored on CDs and DVDs that can be read across different operating systems and hardware platforms.
