The 7 Fatal Mistakes of Storing Data, Music and Photos on CDs
excerpts:

  • Sharpie markers may ruin a CD over time. Use TDK's CD marker instead ($5 for four).
  • The best bet for archival-quality CD-Rs is Mitsui Archival, which are rated for 400 years.
  • Sunlight can ruin a CD-R in as little as two hours – UV light damages the dye.
  • Paper labels are not proven to last, the adhesives may eat into the CD over time, may partially come off, and may jam slot-loading CD drives.
  • The topside of a CD is more vulnerable to scratches than the bottom.
  • The U.S. Postal Service now adds surcharges on mail containing CDs to cover hand sorting; being fairly inflexible, the disks don't always survive automatice sorting.
  • Hard cardboard mailers provide the best protection for a CD, but cost more than bubble wrappers to mail.
