Unlike near line storage that requires power whether it is HDD or tape , the WORM offers archiving technology that consumes the same amount of power as a filling cabinet -  Zero!

WORMing your way out of bad archiving decisions

The Differences Explained;

HDD:

• Spinning disc that has a limited life span warranted to a maximum of 5 years.

Tape:

• Can be shelf archive, however, still needs to run as part of a re-tensing process to stop tapes adhering to themselves
• Media is subject to electromagnetic radiation
• Far shorter life cycle (how many tape formats have there been in the past 10 yrs?!)
• Excellent media for back up and near line storage NOT for long term archive

Optical BD-R WORM:

•  Makes use of an inorganic material in the recording layer, entirely different from the organic dye used in previous types of DVD & CDs which were susceptible to light.
• As the recording layer is not affected by light, it realizes a disc with outstanding archiving ability.
• The addition of a hard coating minimises the effect of finger marks smudges or scratching
• Decades long, environmentally sound, affordable, essential archiving solutions
