That's the message you'll get when you're trying to burn that important disc. At today's prices, if you need an external burner, go with Buffalo, LG or another major brand. You still might get an occasional error message but overall you'll be happier because they happen much less. The time wasted more than makes up the difference.

Never heard of Laurensory. I've still got an LG External CD/DVD burner with a USB-A end. Seems like it would probably be better off sticking with them and buying a USB-C adapter if your laptop is missing USB-A than going with this brand.

If we only knew what we know now. Tech always advances. Just want some sci-fi to see what the future will inevitably hold.
512gb SD card (or microSD) for under $30.
Just curious. Are people still using these for archiving?

Does not matter as the internal drive is a brand name drive. It's confirmed to be a Samsung SU-208-GB drive (firmware TF01). Which was manufactured by TSSTcorp (Toshiba Samsung Storage Technology Corporation).. So real good hardware but I can't speak to the software. Either way it's $9 bucks....

3-2-1 backup rule for all of your digital media:
  • 3 copies of the data
  • Across 2 different storage mediums
  • 1 of which is offsite

So even if your data is backed up on your laptop and an external HDD, they're still the same medium (I guess if one is an SSD and one is a spinning-disk that's technically different, but SSDs aren't good for longterm archival anyway). Burning everything to CDs/DVDs/Blu-Rays gets you a hard backup on another storage medium. Tape drives would be good, too, but ain't no one using personal tape drives these days.

Off-site would then be your cloud backup solution, backup to a co-location, or the cheap ass approach of sending an HDD with all your stuff backed up on it to your parents' house.

Could be YMMV.. not seeing it for the black one and the promo code that OP has doesn't work for the black one.
