Burning discs can be a hassle, especially if you're making them so they can be played back like a normal disc.

I have some low capacity Hard Drives and SSDs, 250GB and less. I figured a way to use them, not really serious use, just for fun. Use a 2.5 inch drive hot swap dock to load up OSMC and media files and have the ability to store them on a shelf like a DVD or blu-ray. The advantage is that it could take up less physical space than a Blu-ray or DVD set and you can update the contents continuously. Plus if each disk has it's own OSMC install, you could keep the metadata and artwork with the files, just shut down, pull the drive and put in a new one, then boot it back up.
