I was thinking of getting a case that can install 2 x 5.25" BDXL drives, so I can either:

burn two 25gb archival m-discs at a time (one onsite copy, one offsite copy), or

burn disk B on one drive, while the other drive verifies disk A

My questions are:

1. Is this a good approach?

2. What would be a better drive combination?

Pioneer BDR-2213 (primary burner) + Pioneer BDR-212UBK (secondary burner)

or

Pioneer BDR-212UBK (primary burner) + LG WH16NS40 (secondary burner)

3. I know most of those drives are super hard to find these days... so also looking for guidance in that regard. (Open to other drive suggestions.)

Thank you in advance for your help. ]]> QuestionAsker https://forum.videohelp.com/threads/420925-Advice-on-my-2-x-BDXL-M-Disc-computer-build-for-archiving-data
