I purchased 50 TDK 40x data disks for $16.99 and am thinking of purchasing more at that price.

Can I keep these for a number of years before using them without degradation?

These are made by Ritek, and not sure what the quality will be in the future.

Thanks,
Ron

I have Riteks burned from 1998 that stills works great.

I don't keep them in direct sunlight.

Depending on what information you're storing, chances are that by the time the CD's might degrade, you won't need that info anyways.
