Re: Do Burned CDs Have a Short Life Span?
As prices for hard-drive storage fall, while their capacity continues to increase, perhaps hard drives are better choices for long-term storage. A good plan would be to use duplicate drives, and store one off site.
That's why they have RAID systems. One problem with large capacity HDs is that when they crash, you lose a lot of data, unless those drives are part of a RAID array.
