I would like to archive photos. Hard drive (HD) are unreliable after 3-5 years and are not design for long-term storage. DVDs are much better.
From my research i found that TAIYO YUDEN dvd+r is the best option and should last decades. I would like to delete photos off my hard drive and have them on DVD. I like multiple back ups but would like to eliminate HD to save space. I plan to have a dvds at home and a copy at work, also i'd keep a copy on adrive.com (cheap i-net storage).
so i've made identical dvds and stored them in different places. with time dvds will get bad sectors; most likely in different places. i'd like to combine the images of these old dvds with bad sectors to get one good image. similar to mirroring hds with RAID 1.
i'd like to know if there is a program that would combine 2 or more .iso files that have errors and get one without errors.
any suggestions on better archiving options are appreciated.
You can also make a majority vote to ensure you get a corrected backup file, ensuring you won't overwrite good bytes with corrupted ones.

1@bot47 in the question, i asked for a program that would combine two or more .iso to get a correct image. dd_rescue is a program and it does exactly what was in the question. it uses logs to do that. what kind of answer should it be than? – kirill_igum – 2011-06-14T16:24:01.630
