While that might well be true, my feelings are somewhat coloured by the
fact that in all my years of owning and using them I have never had any
CD or DVD drive go wrong or damage a disk. On the other hand, I've lost
count of the number of hard drives I've had which have failed.
CDs and DVDs scratch, and writeable ones degrade. I would treat them as
really bad for archival.
The only way IMO is out to a third party, ie something cloudy. Let them
take care of replacing the hard disks.
