4) Care of Compact Discs
Contrary to early reports, compact discs are very easily
damaged and if treated carelessly, may eventually become
unreadable. With CD-ROM drives becoming ever faster and
more disc sensitive, this is becoming an increasing
problem.
A compact disc is made from two thin layers of
polycarbonate, sandwiching the data-encoded reflective
surface. The surface of the disc is very easily
scratched. Normally a CD-ROM drive can cope with small
surface scratches without any problems. However, if
these scratches are too long, too deep or too numerous,
the CD-ROM drive may have problems reading the data.
Siilar problems will result from dirt and grease
accumulating on the playing surface. To avoid getting
dirt on the disc, always hold it by the edges, and never
touch the playing surface.
Should the disc become dirty or scratched, clean the
surface with a lens cloth, using a small radial action.
Should the disc be very dirty, use a proprietary CD
cleaner or a lens cloth with a CD cleaning fluid.
Should the disc be badly scratched, there are CD
cleaners available that will repair some of this damage.
Compact discs should also be kept well away from extreme
heat, as this can warp the disc or damage the surface.
