More hard drives. RAID, rotate them out when they fail, more backups too. lol

Sounds pricey. Discs are cheap.

I’ve never had a CD/DVD R last more than a year anyway, even when using expensive media and slow burn speeds. So its not exactly archival.

Except it’s time consuming and requires you to get up and physically insert the disc. Plus off hdd, you can easily stream it anywhere…
