en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M-DISC

M-DISC’s design is intended to provide archival media longevity.[3][4] M-Disc claims that properly stored M-DISC DVD recordings will last up to 1000 years.[5] The M-DISC DVD looks like a standard disc, except it is almost transparent with later DVD and BD-R M-Disks having standard and inkjet printable labels.

That being said, that’s 100GB a disc. You can stuff a lot more on a typical hard drive, and I appreciate that people want to easily and inexpensively store very large amounts of data.
