I was wondering roughly how many CD-Rs the average CD burner could burn over 24 hours without a major risk of losing the drive. I'm wondering cause I need to clean my HD, and I plan to burn 30 to 40 GB off my computer. Mostly anime, some music. |

A good burner should have no problem but you might want to let it cool down every hour or so. I recommend CDRWs for backup, though. And for that matter anything that doesn't need to be permenant and won't be used in older drives. | |||

Most of what I'm burning is anime. Why would I want to risk burning over a CD fliied with anime? ^^ | |||

as you know, the slower the speed, the better quality of burns you do get. 16 speed (which is i think a disc in about 7 minutes) is my ideal speed, although I prefer 8 (1 disc in 10 minutes). but yeah, if you have a brand name drive and brand name media, then any speed should be fine |

Ah, well, that's why you check what's on the disc before you burn it. | |||

I can also buy CD-Rs for less money than CD-RWs. And I'm trying to save some money for a month from now. |
