This post is about the expected lifespan of Imation 8x DVD+RW (RiData second generation) RICOHJPN-W21-01.  I'll be keeping track of how many writes are done to this media before it fails.  I'll update this post with the final value when the disc dies.

 

The writer is an ASUS BD BW-16D1HT with firmware 3.11 is a VanTech USB 3.0 first generation enclosure.

 

One write is already accounted for by Full formatting of the disc.

 

Just reached the 40th write mark thus far.  Still going.

 

Verify failed on the 43rd write.  So, this disc got 42 writes before failure.
