the price of TY disc is higher than the price of any other DVD disc from another brand, so I asked about the durability and resistance of DVDR TY
the Mdisc has a higher price than the TY it is true that the dvd-r JVC Taiyo Yuden has a life span of 100 years? |
No one knows for sure. DVD media has not been around for 100 years.
Life estimates are based on accelerated aging tests involving cycles of heat and humidity, statistics, and material science assumptions about how these factors effect media life. Other factors include handling, manufacturing variances and tolerances, and other physical stresses. Add to this advertising hype. Genuine TY has an excellent reputation for CD and DVD media. M-DISC is relatively new and most burners cannot write to the media. Also, it is more expensive and has lower burn speed ratings.. However, the few published tests of M-DISC do read good. Since media is generally much lower cost than other production elements, you could burn a copy of important stuff on both media types for your archive as touch of insurance. In any case, handle and store you media properly for longest live. And, if you can still find a reader for the media, you will have an answer in 100 years or so. |

But too many variables to make a solid prediction, the biggest of which is how you handle them.
Consider anything beyond 30 years good fortune and anything under 10 years a disappointment. Visit http://www.osta.org/technology/dvdqa/dvdqa11.htm. And read some of the other pages from the left side bar links. Since this is an international following, be sure to specify units (C or F) used with temperatures. |

Did you read the links I referenced?
Cannot be predicted with any certainty. If you want a number from someone else of whom you do not know the credentials, for planning purposes, and assuming no abuse beyond time, temperature and humidity, at those temperatures perhaps a range of 12 to 40 years. However, individual pieces and batches of media could do better, or worse, before excessive read errors develop. |

the link says that the DVD-R disc has a 30 year life but the temperature has to be 22 C ° and the humidity below 50%, but my storage conditions are completely different temperature is 30 C ° ~ 36 C ° and humidity 35% ~ 64% without rain and my discs are DVD + R 16x Philips (CMC MAG M01) and DVD-R JVC Taiyo Yuden therefore asks how many years of life that Philips and JVC that have these conditions that my conditions dvd philips and dvd JVC and how many years of useful life? |

Do you want someone to say the TY will last 24 years 4 months and 12 days while the Philips will llast only 23 years, 3 months, and 11 days? If they said that, would you believe them? |

Given your location (Brazil), my educated guess is 20 years, on average, for the TY discs.
CMC is probably less than half that. OSTA has some flaws in their methodology, so I wouldn't follow it too exactingly. Some of their info was distorted from reality. |
I contacted email the CMC and they said the DVD + R 16x Philips (CMC MAG M01) has a useful life expectancy of 30-50 years at temperature 25 C ° below 50% moisture, true or false?? I trust you guys forum, in my condition temperature is 30 ° C ~ 36 ° C and humidity 35% ~ 64% without rain which the opinion of you life of disc?

what the CMC said it's all lies? dvd + r phillips CMC mag m01 does not have a life expectancy useful between 30 ~ 50 years?
|
I would not say out and out lies, just under very specific and optimal controlled conditions. But at your temperatures perhaps half their claimed life if otherwise carefully handled, likely less allowing for normal usage.
|
I wonder if the CMC Magnetics is a liar company to talk to DVD + R Phillips manufactured by CMC has a useful life expectancy of 30 ~ 50 years at 25 ° C and humidity below 50%

Just about all manufacturers hype their products, citing best case life data. What you will experience in real life use will be different, probably substantially less.
If you are that concerned, obtain CD/DVD diagnostic software and a calibration/test-quality drive. Make two copies of every archive media (one is a back-up). Then every 6 months to a year test all your archive media for correctable read errors. When the number of errors starts to increase make a new archive copy (i.e., before the errors become uncorrectable). While not a 100& guarantee that you will not lose data 20 years from now, it is a significant step toward that goal. I have no specific recommendations as to which software or drives to buy. |
In the case of DVD + R 16x Philips (ID: CMC MAG M01) what is the true maximum life expectancy useful it? I do not know what dye this dvd disc uses
The CMC said it was 30 ~ 50 years under normal storage conditions, the more you said that this information is a lie |
They gave you a range of 30-50 years at 25C and 50% RH.
Your conditions are different - up to 10C warmer and fluctuation temperature humidity. That might cut it to 12-20 years. If your disks also are being handled. played, viewed, etc. that would cut it even more. There is no way anyone here can predict it. So back-up and test. If that is not a satisfactory answer, then consider visiting forums that specialize in optical media Good day and good luck. |
the information on the DVD disc philips 30-50 years at 25C and 50% RH to CMC gave me is true or false? is a lie of them?
what are the best optical media forums? |
The kind of info you seek isn't going to be found on any forum. Or online at all. Or offline at all. You're asking for that which does not exist. If I could see the future, I'd be rich. But I'm not.
You located the best media: Taiyo Yuden. Use it. |
I answer only this doubt: the information on the DVD+R 16x disc philips 30~50 years at 25C and 50% RH me passed to CMC is true or false? is a lie of Them?
