From Just Solve the File Format Problem

File Format
Sound Designer II files store all sound samples in the Data Fork and all sound parameters, in the Resource Fork.[2] Therefore, SD2 files cannot be used on Windows or Linux.
An SDII file can be monophonic or stereophonic. When stereo is used, the tracks are interleaved (sample-001-left, sample-001-right, sample-002-left, sample-002-right, etc.)[3]
When Roxio TOAST saves an Audio CD to disk image, toast saves a single .SD2F file format. Which includes all CD-Text in Resource Fork.
