"In addition you should be looking to add parity/recovery data to       your CD-R/DVD-R backup files, which serves two purposes: (a) allows       you to verify that the files are still readable and intact (b) allows       you to recover damaged files if you have enough recovery data. It       allows you to recover from scratches that the underlying ECC was       unable to correct for."              E.g. "I'd like to use QuickPar, or par2cmdline, to protect archives       stored on CD-R and DVD-R media."              E.g. "dvdisaster complements optical media [. . .] with error       correction data in a way that they are fully recoverable even after       some read errors have developed. This enables you to rescue the       complete data to a new medium."              |---------------------------------------------------------------------------|       |"I have over a thousand burned discs here, thousand in this box: |       | https://panteltje.nl/pub/CD_box_binnenkant_IXIMG_0549.JPG |       |[. . .] |       | |       |[. . .] |       |Old CDs I burned decennia ago kept in that box still play great here." |       |---------------------------------------------------------------------------|              Impressive again!
