Default Storage for CDs and DVDs


Many years ago when 5 1/4in floppy discs were in fashion, you could get
storage draws to keep them in, I now have a large collection of both CDs and
DVDs and I'd like to find the same sort of storage facilities.

So, is there such a thing, and where will I buy it?

Depends on how much you want to spend, I do know that commercial
office furniture suppliers often offer pull out draws [1] designed to
be deep enough for standard CD (not sure about the standard DVD)
case - the down side is they are not cheap and are being commercial -
rather than home office- the units they are designed to fit can seem
bulky.

[1] for use in side-filers and storage wardrobes

I find that DVDs fit into the same space as the old 5.25" floppies.


True, but where do you get storrage boxes for 5 1/4in floppies?

I'm sure Blue Peter would have run an article on this some years ago,
using only a cornflakes box and double sided sticky tape ;-)

Ask an adult before you use the scissors though hehe.
