Archive to DVD still smart?

Jul 28, 2011

I'm getting tired of trying to fit folders to DVD size for archiving, especially now that my D7000 is making larger files. Not that I have any spare cash, but is it a good idea to burn to two external drives instead of DVDs and one external drive? Thanks for any wisdom. (Common sense will do too.)
