Ultimate backup solution. Will not die like HDD, will not vanish/locked-out like Cloud.

Use it for precious data, not Linux ISOs. I recommend Verbatim USB Blu-ray writers, 43887, 43888, 43889 $157 and the like. Pioneers will do too, look for "M-Disk" or BDXL support, check by downloading user manual. Buy two and keep one with the written disks offsite.

Looks like lowest per disk at the moment. Non-organic chemistry in BD-Rs 50G and above - will not go sour in 100 years.

Specs (5th image on Amazon listing):
- It is suitable for long-term storage by adopting a unique MABL recording layer.
- Protects from damage by adopting a strong surface protective layer

M-Disk or not?

Likely not, but still 100 years guarantee for MABL recording chemistry, see here and here.
M-Disks claim 1000 years. M-Disk surface looks more golden, this is probably will be dark blue.

  • Niche storage, like my old Iomega Zip drive back in the old uni days.

  • well if $ is not an object for your backup sakes. Maybe the tape drive route.. LTO-9 route :) backup terrabytes not gigabytes per disk. ideal conditions can last 2-3 decades. roadmap LTO-11: 96TB native, 240TB compressed, and LTO-12: 192TB native, 480TB compressed

  • wait…so this is like 2TB (20 x 100GB) of backup for $130?

  • What drive is needed to write and read the disk?
    machine info said my CD-ROM is a hl-dt-st dvdram gh24nsd1, can it read/write bluray?
    thanks.
