Sony is killing off recordable Blu-ray, bidding farewell to disc burning | TechSpot

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Checkout AWS S3 “Deep Glacier Archive”. It’s perfect for data you only “read” in recovery events, since you have to wait up to 12 hours to retrieve the data. I backup my Plex this way.
Based on their 100T of data the .00099 per GB pricing will have them spending $99 a month, or $1200 a year, for backup.
Yup, that's why I don't bother backing up media to places like S3 or B2, I only back up important stuff like family pictures and tax documents. Replacing my DVD or Bluray collection is feasible, it just costs time and money, but I can't replace pictures and whatnot.
You have to ask yourself if that’s worth it to you.
For me? Yeah, I don’t want to rebuild these datasets.
After a few years, it'd probably be cheaper to get a second NAS and store it at a friend/relative's place.
I have a few friends that do that too!
