I have been working on the process of transferring large amounts of my hoarded data to M-Discs, yes I know this is a somewhat slow and expensive process, but it seems the ideal solution for minimum maintenance long term "cold" storage. However, I have run into a bit of a snag.

I store the discs in jewel cases and when hundreds of them get involved, I am looking for a better and more durable way of containing and transporting them than the (now duct tape reinforced) cardboard boxes the jewel cases come in. Searching for containers for jewel cases seems to yield only 25-50 unit containers, which tend to be very expensive and not very durable. Not to mention that sometimes a single section of data I want to store together requires more than 25-50 discs.

Does anyone have any recommendations for cases/boxes that can hold 100-200 jewel cases (not the slim ones), preferably made of a hard material with handles. Preferably cost effective but a higher price for a sturdy product is fine. Thanks in advance.
