Blu-Ray disc uses organic or inorganic material?
Blu-Ray disc uses organic dye to store the data it uses or other type of inorganic material? Blu-ray is equal to dvdr disc? Blu-ray has protection for scratches?
|
Both. Depends on type/brand.
Scratch resistant, yes, but it's misleading. Blu-ray has major problems from scartches, and it does get through cheap surfaces. It's worse that DVD for longevity. BD-R has more space, but at a price. BD-R is like an inverted CD-R structurally. And that's not really good. |
I wanted a scratch-resistant bluray disc and inorganic dye into the disc does not suffer from moisture and heat
in Brazil I just found bluray brands: Multilaser, Philips, Nipponic, Emtec, Maxprint, some of these brands and good and reliable? |
Funny enough, Blu-ray isn't as picky as DVD was.
Most of those discs are no-name/fake/off-brand crap, but PHILIPS media tends to be quite decent. Get those. |
if I buy the philips bluray he will have inorganic dye and resistance to scratches?
|
I don't remember if it's inorganic off-hand. You'll need to refer to the Philips documentation, wherever that is (their site?)
All BD-R has scratch resistant coatings. But again, some of them suck, and are not much different from not existing. Authentic Philips coatings are average. Nothing special, but not bad. It's a decent disc. |
Lordsmurf thank you for your help
1 Who makes Blu-Ray Philips? Blu-Ray Philips has resistant coatings risks in the top layer and down layer? 2 What are the types of dyes used to store the data on Blu-Ray discs? 3 Blu-Ray has fewer layers than a DVD + R? |
Philips makes Philips.
Coatings are only on the read surface, not the top. No idea off-hand about dyes. I'd have to refer to my research (sorry, not doing that now). BD-R can have one or two layers like DVD-R/DVD+R. |
1 CMC Magnetics does not manufacture Blu-ray for Philips? I have many DVD + R Philips manufactured by CMC
2 Bluray Disc has a polycarbonate protection layer scratches on top and down? 3 kpmedia quoted imorganico dye bluray disc: Quote:
|
Philips makes Philips.
Read what I said. No coating on top. All discs use polycarb (plastic). |
Inorganic, supposedly very long life Blu-Ray media? The M-DISC might fill the bill if one is to believe their literature. But I've seen little independent information on it.
Only a small number of burners support M-DISC, and blanks are not cheap or widely available. The packaging (plastic) may well about the same as regular BD media in terms of resistance to scratches. |
1 Blu-ray discs use organic reflective layer that oxidizes on contact with oxygen?
2 how do I choose a Blu-ray disc for long-term archiving? |
http://www.mdisc.com/
However, I have no personal experience with them. Everything erodes, oxidizes, decays, etc. The only question is how long it takes. |
All media oxidizes if exposed.
Blu-ray is really not an archival format. It's too fragile, like CD-R. The physical construction is the problem. Fine for movies, but not data. |
What is the best option for long-term archiving?
|
DVD-R, DVD+R, RAIDed/mirrored hard drive. Use multiples for important content.
Secondary locations. |
DVD-R and DVD + R has organic dye and organic reflective layer, if they degrade my disc is dead
Because the DVD is stronger than Blu-Ray? |
