Yes, certain optical disks can hold more than 50 GB of data. For example, Blu-ray discs, particularly the BDXL format, can store up to 128 GB by using multiple layers. Additionally, advancements in optical storage technology may lead to even higher capacity disks in the future. However, standard Blu-ray discs typically hold 25 GB for single-layer and 50 GB for dual-layer formats.
Blu-Rays can hold up to a maximum of 50GB, which is 5 times more data than a DVD can hold
Up to 50GB, which is 5 times more than a single DVD
Blu-Rays can hold up to a maximum of 50GB of data, which is 5 times more than a DVD can hold
(a)- it is a read-only storage medium. Data once recorded, cannot be erased, and hence the optical disk cannot be reused. (b)- thd data access speed for optical disk is slower than magnetic disks; (c)- optical disk require a more complicated drive mechanism that magnetic disk.
Because they are in high definition and they can hold up to 50GB of data, 5 times more than a DVD can hold
5 times more. Blu-Rays can hold up to 50GB
Applications where re-writeable optical laser disk would be preferred over hard disks for storage are: While storing the data in large amount, the optical disk are more preferred as, for storing the videos, photographs and various types of the images. This optical laser disk are used for transferring the information or data from one computer to another so we can easily modify or re-write the data at any time as, this disk are more convenient than hard disk. The optical laser disk are also helpful for distributing the software to the customers or users by using its large storing capacity features, as compared to hard disks.
Yes. Although there are more high capacity disks out there.
The disk size is defined by the manufacturer. You can't store more information than the disk can hold, just like you can't store more water in a jar that it can hold.

The difference between optical and non optical is the way the drive in the DVD reads the disk. Optical is a better and more higher quality reader. So the picture is much better.
Blu-ray Disc media include these features: 50GB capacity - Each disc can hold more than 10 standard DVDs. 25GB capacity - Each disc can hold more than 5 standard DVDs.
