• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

Techworld has a round-up and brief history of some of the popular optical formats as well as a look ahead in the types of storage we could potentially be seeing.

Optical disk technology has played a key role in the data storage industry for more than three decades. The robust nature and stability of the media have established it as a very popular storage media for both consumer and professional applications. The well-established use of optical products and the roadmap for new technologies will ensure that it continues to be used for many years in the future.
 
Optical drives and printers are bastards.

90% of my PC problems come from those two... most often printers though.

I hope they replace optical drives soon.
