French research: Avoid Blu-ray LHT discs for data archival Optical discs are known for degrading. The chemicals used in optical discs are unstable and therefor the discs become less readable over the years. A French study <http://club.myce.com/f33/french-study-bd-r-archival-329441> in which several Blu-ray recordable discs were tested reveals that it makes a lot of difference on which discs you store your valuable data. The archives of France, who conducted the research, tested discs from Sony, Verbatim, Maxell (made by Ritek), JVC and Panasonic. http://bit.ly/RikOwz Source: http://www.myce.com/news/french-research-avoid-blu-ray-lht-discs-for-data-archival-64265/ See if people are clicking on this link: http://bit.ly/RikOwz+ Try the bitly.com sidebar to see who is talking about a page on the web: http://bitly.com/pages/sidebar -- Peter Kurilecz CRM CA [log in to unmask] Richmond, Va http://twitter.com/RAINbyte http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/RAINbyte/ http://paper.li/RAINbyte/rainbyte http://pinterest.com/pakurilecz/archives/ http://pinterest.com/pakurilecz/records-management/ http://www.linkedin.com/in/peterakurilecz Information not relevant for my reply has been deleted to reduce the electronic footprint and to save the sanity of digest subscribers List archives at http://lists.ufl.edu/archives/recmgmt-l.html Contact [log in to unmask] for assistance To unsubscribe from this list, click the below link.
