But you did ask about zipping so you should test if there is any space gained by zipping.
Along with best would be to copy the final archive to a second and maybe third BD-R disc so that it can be put in a safe location other than where your first copy is. That way, fire, burglary or flood is unlikely to destroy all backups.
First of all thank you to everyone for all of your help it is so much appreciated.
So i want to archive some of my sacd/dsd files via a bd-r 50 disc. I have them in saved as iso right now for archival purposes on a hard drive and they are taking up too much space and are never used as i play they actual dsd files i have extracted from the iso images.
So as far as longevity and accuracy i guess you would say...Should i put them in zip folders? Leave them as iso? Or extract the iso files into the dsf files and store them that way? Space is not really an issue, i would rather a much more reliable method as opposed to saving a couple bd-r's.
Thank you again,
Shane
