I'm going to start buying stacks of 4K BD-ROMs to move my old gaming clips and blender projects and stuff to. I can't keep taking care of more and more 8TB hard drives that are going to die someday and having to hoard and replace them.

The price-to-capacity ratio is worse, sure you can get an 8TB WD Blue for 130 dollars now, but those are mechanical and electronic, they get old and die. SSDs, they get old and die and those are twice as expensive. I'm on low income.

Discs only rot and even then they take way longer. I'll be able to procrastinate on revising that old stuff for as long as I am alive.

While I'm deciding what to move to those discs it will also be a good opportunity to finally delete years of stuff I just don't want anymore. The data hoarding is only half because I'm overprotective but also because that shit piles up and gets hard to sift through.
