In 1972, researchers of the Philips, Netherland, successfully recorded and replied information with laser beam and subsequently released LD/Laser Vision Disc system to the market in 1978. Since the emergence of LD/Laser Vision Disc till now, disc technology has undergone leapfrog improvement through enjoying three major stages, LD-VCD, CD-DA and CD-ROM, after which the disc technology has become full-fledged. Now common CD is of thin thickness but large capacity. CD generally comprises five layers including basic plate, record layer, protection layer and printing layer. With the popularization of CD, many users are accustomed to storing important data with CD thanks to its tiny size and convenience. Whereas, CD is also vulnerable to external damage, especially scratches which results in CD inaccessibility. At this moment, user should turn to third-party CD recovery software to help perform CD data recovery. Referring to CD recovery software, I would like to mention MiniTool Power Data Recovery, a powerful data recovery software covering a specialized CD/DVD Recovery function module.

Measures for CD protection
CD is very common in our daily life and its hi-fi sound quality and authentic image is widely favored by a large number of users. So here are some useful measures for CD protection
1. Gently wipe CD surface with clean and soft cotton cloth if there is water vapor.
2. Place CD in dust-free place away from magnetic field and access CD by pinching the edge or center.
3. Rub CD from the center to periphery with special cleanser if there is blot on CD and prevent CD from gasoline or alcohol or other chemical substances that corrode CD interior accuracy.
4. It is better to stack less than 10 CDs together to avert CD deformation. If deformation occurs, place CD into a paper bag pressed glass splints in both sides and put 5 kg weight item on glass splint. CD evenness would be recovered in 36 hours.
5. 20°is the best environment for CD.
