DD Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 As the viewpoint of SONY, more than 30years , 1 million times of reuse. Could it be really? give me your advice ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJ_Palmer Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 I've got minidiscs recorded over 5 years ago, and they all still play perfectly, without a blip, and I've reused discs plenty of times... Maybe let you know in 25 years or so. I'd say, keep your discs dust free, in their covers, treat them well and they'll (probably) last a lifetime.

DD Posted March 26, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 Good News! If Mini Disks differ in prize(quality), then could it differ in data preservation? What kind of Mini Disk do you often use? I mean brand, plus series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJ_Palmer Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 Well, I haven't got a real brand preference, anything goes really: TDK (MD-C80YEA, RXG, XSiv), Sony Color series, Maxell XL-II 80. Haven't had a dud yet! I think the cheapest disks from Memorex etc are best avoided due to their slightly shoddy build quality (of the case), though I have some of these for temporary recording and they seem fine. The material for the disks themselves seems standard, and I believe there's no actual difference in recording quality between makes, depsite the claims.

Leland Posted March 29, 2003 Report Share Posted March 29, 2003 I have MD's that are 10 years old. Even some of the original 60 minute ones where the MD logo and other printing on the disc is upside down. They still work like new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
