DVD backup

Hey, often when you copy stuff from a CD or DVD back to the Harddrive, all
files will be marked as read-only.  XSI might not like that, and that may be
causing your corruption problems.  After copying the projects back to the
server, you should mark *all* files as writable and see if you problem goed
away.

 Subject: OT : DVD backup


 Hi all, sorry for slight OT...

 we archive our XSI stuff  ( scenes, models, textures ...) on DVD. We
experienced rencently a problem
 where scenes archieved were corrupted when put back on the server although
the burning software
 didn't mention any errors at recording stage.

 Do you guys know of any software or "trick"  that would insure the backup is
safe ?    
 (Apart from opening every single scene)...

 Cheers,
 F.
