BLOB vs BFILE

Hello!
I want to ask about storing large amount of binary data. I need to store binary files of 1-4 Gb each. Total amount can exceed 100-200 Tb. What is the best way to store it in Oracle? BLOB or BFILE? I know all advantages and disadvantages of these approaches, but I can’t choose the right technology. Is it dangerous to store 200 Tb in BLOB?

Could you please give me a piece of advice about storing such amount of binary data?

I use Oracle 11gR2.

Thanks in advance.

Howdy, Stranger!
