Another one for the #archive #datahoarder #storage #nas bubble:
What is the ~best DVD-ROM drive to read old and likely degraded media?
The Internet at large seems devoid of any information, it's all AI and linkfarming slop.
Are #MDisc worth it? If yes, what drive, disk manufacturer etc do I want? Are 100GB discs are reliable as 50 and 25 ones?
#HDD have shorter life? #LTO #tape seems less portable?
