Unlike traditional DVDs that use organic dyes, M-Disc technology physically engraves data onto a rock-like layer. They are immune to oxidation and humidity, offering a real solution for very long-term critical information archiving, surpassing the lifespan of hard drives and flash memories.
M-Disc uses an inorganic recording layer that mimics stone, where the laser creates permanent micro-cavities instead of decolorizing chemical dyes. Certified by accelerated tests equivalent to 1000 years, they resist extreme temperatures, humidity, and UV light without degradation. Available in DVD (4.7 GB) and BD (25/50/100 GB) formats, they require specific compatible recorders. Ideal for family archives, legal documents, scientific research, or cultural heritage that must last for generations. Although optical technology might become obsolete, the physical durability of the media facilitates future migrations, making it the best current option for permanent archiving.
