This testing for R discs is in the preliminary stages, and much more needs to be done. ROMs are generally mass-produced and contain music, video, computer applications, or interactive games. ROM disc longevity is determined by the extent to which its aluminum layer is exposed to oxygen. Oxygen, including pollutants, can migrate through the polycarbonate layer or the hard lacquer layer CD label side and edge , carried in by moisture.
Oxygen or moisture can more easily penetrate through scratches, cracks, or delaminated areas in the label. Oxygen can also be trapped inside the disc during manufacturing, although manufacturing improvements have reduced the likelihood of this.
If left in a very humid environment, moisture-and oxygen-will eventually reach the aluminum, causing it to lose its reflectivity. The normally shiny aluminum, which resembles silver, becomes oxide-dull and much less reflective, like the color of a typical aluminum ladder. The combination of high humidity and increased temperatures will accelerate the oxidation rate. The life expectancy of a ROM disc therefore depends on the environmental conditions to which it is exposed over time.
Generally, it is best to keep ROM discs in a dry, cool environment. Other contaminates, however, such as inks, solvents, and pollutants, have the potential to irreversibly penetrate and to deform, discolor, or corrode the disc, causing permanent reading problems for the laser. The tests are generally performed by manufacturers, and the discs are usually categorized by the metal and dye types used in the disc.
These discs use gold, silver, or a silver alloy for the reflective layer instead of aluminum as in ROM discs. Gold will not corrode but is expensive. Silver is more reflective and cheaper than gold but is susceptible to corrosion if exposed to sulfur dioxide, an air pollutant that can penetrate the disc in the same way oxygen can-with moisture. Manufacturers use various silver alloys to help inhibit silver corrosion, and most R discs available today use a silver alloy reflective layer.
The chance of silver corrosion from exposure to sulfur dioxide is less than the chance of aluminum oxidation caused by high humidity. With proper storage, these discs will outlast the technology. R discs use a dye-based layer organic dye for recording data. The organic dye used in the data layer of R discs degrades naturally but slowly over time. A few of the most common include:. The numbers in each format refer, roughly, to capacity in gigabytes.
Actual capacity is less because technical parameters changed since the nomenclature was designated. Still, the number is a valid way to approximate how much data the DVD will hold when you're deciding which to purchase. Check the specifications of your DVD burner to be sure of the format you need. DVDs definitely have their uses but there are also other kinds of discs you could use to store files, whether they're software programs, pictures, videos, MP3s, etc.
In some cases, you might need a disc that can hold more or less data. For example, if you need more storage space because your DVD isn't enough, you might grab a single-layer Blu-ray Disc that can hold 25GB. However, there's also the opposite—CDs that are good for storing less than what a DVD is capable of holding.
Generally, smaller capacity discs are the least expensive discs you can buy. They're also more widely acceptable in disc drives. However, a Blu-ray Disc is only usable if the device includes Blu-ray support.

DVD supports as high as 10 megabits per second but that's overkill for VHS On a single layer recordable disc, that bitrate gives you about 2 hours.
