Among all computer accessories, the optical drive is a relatively easy-to-lose accessory, and the general service life is 2 ~ In the past three years, if the service is frequently used or improperly used, the service life is estimated to be shorter. To keep the optical drive in good running status, reduce faults and prolong service life, daily maintenance and maintenance are very important.
Dustproof, heat dissipation, and vibration reduction
Because the burner has the function of writing data into the disc, it is particularly important to clean itself. When burning, the dust is easily absorbed to the high-speed rotating disc, it is likely to leave a long or short scratch on the disc, thus affecting the burning quality of the disc, even decommission the disk. During the operation of the burner, a considerable amount of heat is generated. The heat must be distributed from the burner in time to ensure its stability. In addition, the burner will produce vibration during operation. If the operation is improper, the vibration will be more serious. This will not only make the burner burn data stably, but also damage the laser head easily.
Beware of laser head aging
No matter what brand or model the recorder is, after a long period of work, it must be given enough "rest" time, this ensures that the laser head performance of the burner is always in the optimal state, so as to ensure that the burner can be used frequently. On the contrary, if the burner is constantly working in a high temperature environment, the laser head will be especially prone to aging, thus affecting its normal working performance and ultimately affecting its service life.
Reading and burning jobs
For economic reasons, most users use a burner to read and burn data. For the recorder, the quality of the disc plays a key role in the service life of the disc. For example, if the playing disc has scratches, the signal is suddenly lost during reading, the laser head starts the error correction function frequently and reads it repeatedly until the signal is found. Therefore, after having a burner, it is recommended to buy some good quality disk, if you have to read a large number of disk operations, it is best to configure a common CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive, it is used for reading to extend the life of the recorder.
Correct basic operations
Since the power of the laser head and the spindle motor is the largest after the optical disc enters the warehouse, if the laser head frequently enters the warehouse, the aging of these components will naturally be accelerated. Therefore, we should avoid frequent disk replacement whenever possible. In addition, do not push the disc tray to the warehouse door by hand, because it is harmful to the mechanical part of the drive, which will accelerate the wear and aging of mechanical parts. In addition, do not keep the disc in the drive when it is not used, and keep it as stable as possible during the use of the recorder. Do not move the burner or chassis as needed to avoid affecting the burning quality.
