Hi, You can take multiple backup copies of blue ray then. Once data is corrupt on dvd then you are bound to lose the encrypted data. If you got multiple copies, then in case of corruption, a simple code to compare the data bitwise on all copies can be made to retrieve back the original bits. If you got 3 copies then this method would give better result as same bit getting corrupt on 2 copies can be assumed rare case, so a comparison with 3 copies can get the correct bit.

Hi, the 25 GB will be burned to an Blu Ray Disc. That is why a RAID is not useable here. Do you recommend an 25 GB Truecrypt Container? I can test if it survives Bitflipping.

For encryption I would suggest TrueCrypt, check it out if you have not done yet. Regards,
