You get the slightest scratch on a data dvd, and it screws shit up.  CDs aren't like that--you can put a completely scratched up CD in a drive and it'll read MD5perfectly.  (New word)

Of course I have all my old backups on DVDs. They never work when I need them:

Code:
/cdrom/xab: Input/output error

FU** YOU TOO!  

I need a bigger hard drive.

:/ My DVDs work alright with a few scratches. Maybe you have a cheap DVD drive?

It did sit out in the rain for like 5 years.  Maybe I'm in denial.  I don't want to actually get off my chair and switch the drive out. . .
