So, my wife is an avid amateur photographer and shoots in RAW, so I've got about 250GBs of photographs to backup. I recently purchased a bluray writer with the intent of creating a backup set of all her photographs and then burning new discs as we go along, adding to the backup set.
Her photoset resides on a 2TB hard drive on her computer and is kept mirrored both on an external hard drive and on the storage drive in my computer as well.
My question is, what's the best way to go about putting them on discs? Should I just fill each Blu-ray with photos?
I've heard that I should be using PAR files, but I think that maybe I'm just getting old or something, because I cannot make my brain figure out what I'm supposed to do.
Do I create a PAR file for each blu-ray disc burned to another disc? If this sounds like a stupid question, I'll admit that it probably is. For some reason I really need it spelled out for my because my brain is stuck.
Thanks!
David
