Just wanted some advice from you storage fellas! I decided that I am going to be using m-disks to long term archive videos and photos. Got some very important videos from when I was a kid and I don’t want to risk losing them (I have backups on other media but not long term) I am looking for a good quality Blu-Ray “M-Disk” drive that is internal - but I am planning on making it external with adapters and what not! I don’t particularly want to use an enclosure as it’s too expensive for my budget.

Been looking on amazon for some, specifically the Hitachi-LG BH16, but I’d rather check here if you guys know if it’s good etc…

Can you guys kindly recommend me a good drive that supports m-disk? Been looking for a few weeks now. Budget around £60 - £90 :)

    All Blu-Ray burners are M-Disc Blu-Ray burners. What’s more, there was even before some contention regarding how/if they’re actually different but now as Verbatim isn’t the “japanese Verbatim” they don’t even bother to put the different metadata (MILLEN…) for the M-Discs, so they are probably 100% the same except for the box/spindle label.
