Over the last couple of weeks, I have been considering how important all my cloud backup datasets really are in terms of being necessary. I have document repositories dating back to 1999 and I’m not entirely sure that they are needed for any real reason at this point. Beyond that consideration I started to wonder how long the DVD, Blu-ray, and other disc medium storage restore points actually last. Maybe I could take a little bit of time and test a few of the older discs to see if the storage media is still working.
