I'm not so demanding when it comes to archival read/write speeds. Even if a drive writes 10 MB/s, it will crunch one terabyte in about a day. My gripe is that with small discs, you need to manually change discs and set up burns.
I am more than willing to leave my computer on overnight to write to a 1 TB optical disc with no human intervention. And this action is only for cold storage; HDDs are bigger anyway and I would have the data in hot storage if I needed to browse or edit it.
