Hey guys, I just had a curiosity on the multiple ways of storaging stuff and how long would that hold, take backing it up to a newer storage after some years out of the table.
So how did this come in my mind, I was just reminiscing about how I used to play games with inserting a CD or Cartridge onto the device and how I miss that flavour.
I would like to do it again, I already like having my games dependancy free (praise mr goldmountain), and I am saving up some money to spend on hoarding possibilities. I would like to know what would have the longest storage life, would burning games into bluray discs be too unhinged or is something I am missing?
Thanks in advance in helping me out witht his brainstorm.
Most recent iteration of optical media (Blu Ray) doesn’t rot. Actually older media didn’t rot either if stored properly. I still have 20yr old CDs and DVDs that are usable. And if you’re going to let something sit in moisture or dust or whatever, a HDD wont fair that well either.
