>=20
Only if value your time at $0/hour.=20=20
A terabyte of files takes 10 BDR-XL 100GB discs, which cost $60 total (Verb=
atim BD-R XL, 4X). They record at almost exactly 1GB/min. That works out t=
o about 17 hours per terabyte, with you returning every 95 minutes or so to=
swap out media.=20
Compare that to a $48 1TB external usb hard drive from Amazon (Toshiba, WD,=
and Seagate are all listed at that price +/- 10 cents on Amazon). Start t=
he copy and it completes in a fraction of the time with no user interventio=
n.
Now compare the costs when you have to update the data in a few months and =
that involves overwriting some files on the hard drive or throwing away $60=
worth of BD-R XL discs and replacing them.
I=E2=80=99m not saying that there are no good use cases for BD-R XL discs, =
just that such use cases are relatively rare for most users.
