M-disc BD-R

owc previously sold an enclosure that featured many different formats of connectivity
"OWC Mercury Pro Quad-Interface 5.25" Optical Drive External Solution"
/w FireWire 800, FireWire 400, USB + eSATA ports
im not sure if this enclosure would work to acomplish the same purpose but it is def better to have more ports then less ports

they also come in DVD-R size (4.7gb) i was hoping for the DL DVD size (8GB) but they might not exist
25 pack will cost around 50$ to securely backup sensitive data
