ATI & Validating Opticals

[shieber]

Can't get the orignal thread to accept replies so I'll posthere:


It shouldn't matter as ATI should figure out which disk it is in a series and work forward form there. But if you have more than 2 or 3 disks in the set, get ready for a whole lot of disk swapping back and forth -- enought to convince you to buy a harddrive to use instead for all except those longest term archives (more than 5 years). Of course, archive quality opticals (rated for more than 5-10 years) are going to cost nearly as much or more than a harddisk before you're through but stand a somewhat bertter chance of being reliable 5-10 years out . ;-)
