So my family has a few containers of unused blank dvds that are just lying around collecting dust. i know dvds are almost useless because of streaming, but can they still be used. Theses dvds can only be written to once and they only have like 3 gb of storage on them, can they still be used?, do they have a use?

    You can use them as bootable devices. For example you can create a DVD to run Gparted if you ever need to partition or format a drive.

    I feel like Windows is closer to ~8GB so I don’t think it’ll work for that but you could probably use a few Linux ISOs.
