<p dir="ltr">The one advantage of the mdisk is the playback device is a standard DVD drive. The recorder drive is the same price as a regular DVD burner. But one would need to weigh the time cost of managing a growing archival collection against a larger and more expensive device. <br>
I like the LTO6 tape system at work but can't justify $12k for home.<br>
OK. I'm fine with it but the other people I live with would be extremely furious if I dropped that much on personal hardware. :-)</p>
