I think about this every once in a while, today being one of those. I'm wondering, as of 2025, what is the best backup tool to backup a laptop/desktop boot device to BD-RE, with bonus points for parity data capabilities?

My servers back up to tape, but my tape library is at my office, so I'd like to have a weekly backup of my boot drives handy at home, where discs are easier. My boot disks are intentionally small, usually 128GB Optane rarely close to full, since my storage pools hold the fun stuff, which leaves optical still sensible.
