You shouldn't be adding this by hand. Use the apt-cdrom utility.

apt-cdrom is used to add a new CDROM to APTs list of available
sources. apt-cdrom takes care of determining the structure of
the disc as well as correcting for several possible mis-burns and
verifying the index files.
It is necessary to use apt-cdrom to add CDs to the APT system, it
can‐not be done by hand. Furthermore each disk in a multi-cd set
must be inserted and scanned separately to account for possible
mis-burns.
