Fade Crunch Box Question

I have done the search, I have also read many threads on the Fade Crunch Box, one thing I cannot find out though: does the bag lose capacity if you put the discs in side to side as opposed to front to back? I am not a huge fan of front to back and am contemplating buying it but want to know if it changes either

A. The amount of discs it can hold

or

B. Comfort of the bag, (does it push out against the back and the putter pocket.

I have one that I sometime take when I'm carrying a light load. It actually carries quite a bit of discs when filled side by side and I really don't notice the discs pressing against my back or anything like that. The putter pocket is slightly harder to get in and out of when in is packed full, but with only one disc in there, it isn't a big deal at all.

I've filled mine both ways and when I fill it putter orientation (front to back I guess) it holds 3 putters in the pocket. When I fill normal to the putter pocket (perpendicular) I could only get one maybe two putters in there. Can't remember which way held more discs. I think I always maxed out around 12-15 discs regardless.

i checked mine and i put:
Front to back: 3 putters (pocket tight fit), 4 mids, and 7 drivers =14
side to side same discs : the back seemed to bulge out some but there was probably room for another driver or 2

I can feel a difference when they are side to side compared to front to back. You can definitely feel the discs, its just up to you if its uncomfortable.

And it does make getting the putter out more difficult. And one fits well compared to two when going front to back.

When I have my discs loaded in front to back (same orientation as the putter pocket) they're definitely looser than if I orient them side to side (pocket to waterbottle pocket). Front to back I could probably sneak another driver in there to make them snug.

2 putters in the putter pocket
7 drivers, 3 mids and 1 putter in the main pocket
2 putters in the storage pocket = 15 discs total.

I prefer front to back anyway b/c side to side, the discs tend to slide wonky if you don't keep it full.

I wanted to put them side to side but it was too clunky even though I prefer that orientation. I got over it pretty quickly, it's a great and comfortable small bag.

Ok, thank you everyone for your help. I kind of figured I would get the answers I did, I think I am going to pick up this bag as a main bag (I am kind of a minimalist) and it should work out regardless. Thanks a ton.
