    Any backup software than can span Blu-Rays?


    I have 3GB of RAW files I want to backup. I've tried a few programs and none work for me.

    I just want a simple copy from an internal SATA to my internal LG Blu-Ray writer on Windows 10 with the latest updates.

    I have Blu-Ray drives and they are supposed to be able to use 25GB discs so spanning 3GB wouldn't be necessary. They also can use DVD-R/DVD+R at about 4.2GB or the DVD+R/DL [Dual Layer] at about 8GB. Also can use the 700MB CD-R discs. For archiving I don't use any RW discs.

    I use Roxio Easy CD and DVD Creator for most chores but Windows' File Explorer can do simple copying, just drag the desired files to the ODD icon.

    Do consider side-stepping the problem by backing up to external hard drives instead.

    I made the switch from backing up to DVD+/-RW to external hard drives when I realised that external hard drive prices had dropped so much that they were [GB for GB] cheaper as well as more reliable and more robust.

    best of luck,
