Re: Disc storage Automatic

Pricewise yeah it seeems quite expensive. Good storage away from dust though and useful for quickly getting what you need.

Re: Disc storage Automatic

Hmm, if it were a giant CD changer device, maybe, otherwise it's a waste of money. Anyone heard of shelves?

Re: Disc storage Automatic

What happens if the mechanism breaks down or jams?

No, it isn't, it's only a storage device.....

Quote:
When you select it, the disc is ejected and a message tells you to insert it into your computer's CD or DVD drive. That's because the Disc Stakka doesn't have its own reader, and can't function as a disc drive itself.

Re: Disc storage Automatic

another way would be buy a 200 gig hdd create iso images of cd's and then install deamon tools or alcohol 120 to mount images ,would take time though,then you can box up cd's and put in loft(not advocating this im just being as silly as the box )

Re: Disc storage Automatic

I think GC was referring to the device, not to your suggestion Zing (which was rather silly btw ).
