I’m willing to bet my main SSD, my backup HDD, my FLAC player’s SD card, and my laptop SSD all carrying the same file are going to be more durable than a piece of plastic.
Sure, but that’s a lot of work and worry to keep all those backups going and syncd…ugh. I hate dealing with it. Takes hours of my life. Now, you’re probably an IT admin or programmer like most people on Lemmy, but I don’t have 13 hours to sit on a computer and troubleshoot why Borg won’t work on my restic fluffywhatever. I’m sure you’ll say “its easy, justtttt…” Yeah, its not easy, I’ve lived it.
And in the end, you have a computer hooked to your stereo, the one place I’m trying to escape the constant computing.
A CD works just fine and I can burn another physical copy if I want it.
I’m glad your setup works for you! I have a nas packed full of stuff as well but I rarely use it for the reasons listed. Its a hassle.
