I bought archival azzo dye Dvd+r's and checked PIE errors after every burn to make sure they were as perfect as possible. The disc were stored in black cases in my basement at 70F.
It's 15 years later and I discovered those discs are going bad. I just spent the last 2 months recopying from original tapes (which now have more loss too). My new plan is live drives that can be checked with offline backup on magnetic drives and flash memory with lots of pararchive files for ecc recovery.
