Archival optical discs recommended for long-term local LLM storage

For users concerned about long-term storage of local large language models, 128GB BD-R XL M-DISC optical media is recommended as a state-of-the-art archival solution.

The author suggests purchasing a Blu-ray burner, with models from ASUS, Buffalo, and LG available, and blank M-DISC media from Verbatim and Ritek, noting that demand has increased due to current events.
