This looks 2B a fabulous drive. I own a pro Audio/ video editing studio & backing video & audio project can be a daunting task. I have an an album that a client recorded at my facility & it takes up 35 gigs. Ir's a real pain to back it up to DVD's...especially when u have to correctly label each dvd with the particular content on each one. i also have to make 2 back up copies for myself & 1 for the client. So I can spend a good amount of TIME & MONEY on backing up client projects. I've tried the hard drive storage route & I've had drive fail on me & my clients. They also take up too much space.
Th Blu ray media seems to be a cheaper route. I'm not concerned about backing up things like MP3 collections. I've seen the 500 gig drives & I've stayed away from those things. It's not good to have all your eggs in one basket. Because if you drop that basket... you're in trouble. & how do you back up a 500 gig drive for a client reliably? Another drive is not the answer!!
I'm concerned about handing a client a reliable media that small, efficient & easy to replace.
