But using one of the megabyte-sized image files and checking the properties of the emulated drive while mounted reports the proper disk size. If the game data were checking for the size of the emulated file, wouldn't that mean it would know that the disk is being emulated?

Is there a drawback to using compression? For example, I defragment regularly.
