This section provides tips on protecting data stored on your CD's, DVD's, 

BD's and floppy diskettes. Handle your media with care. Following the 

simple precautions listed below will increase the lifetime of your media and 

protect the data stored on it.

1. Store your CD's, DVD's and BD's in the containers they originally came 

in to protect them and keep them clean.

2. Do not bend the CD's, DVD's and BD's.
3. Do not write on, apply a sticker to, or otherwise mar the surface of the 

CD, DVD or BD that contains the data.

4. Hold the CD, DVD or BD by its outside edge or the edge on the center 

hole - any fingerprints on the surface of the disc can prevent the drive 

from properly reading data.

5. Do not expose the CD, DVD or BD to direct sunlight, extreme heat or 

cold.

6. Do not place heavy objects on your CD's, DVD's or BD's.
7. If your CD's, DVD's or BD's become dusty or dirty, wipe them with a 

clean dry cloth from the center hole outwards - do not wipe in a circular 

direction. If necessary, you can use a cloth that has been lightly 

dampened in water or a neutral cleaner but you must not use benzine, 

thinner or any similar cleaning solution.

1. Store your floppy diskettes in the container they came in to protect them 

and keep them clean. If a floppy diskette becomes dirty, clean it with a 

soft, lightly dampened cloth - do not use cleaning fluid.

2. Never open the shutter or touch the magnetic surface of your floppy 

diskette - doing this could permanently damage it and lose data.

3. Always handle floppy diskettes with care to prevent the loss of stored 

data.

4. Always apply the floppy diskette label in the correct location and never 

apply a new label on top of an existing one - in this instance the label 

could come loose and damage the floppy diskette drive.
