calling all sys-ops to a thread--
We're starting discussions at work on archiving projects on DVD instead
of TAPE. We are currently using DDS [various version depending upon
capacity needs]
I've got a few initial concerns with moving to DVD -- and can see a few
benefits as well, but would appreciate any candid comments others have
through experience-- articles you've seen posted recently about the
different mediums etc...
Specifically-- the goal is to archive data from a project. This is NOT
for a nightly backup [nightly back ups are covered already]. This is
for pulling project data off the system [when the project is done] and
storing it on a medium that will be archived both locally an in a
document control center for easy retrieval at a future date [if
needed]. Longevity is a concern, as well as capacity.
