Hello. I have made a back up to my system very recently, and I have image stored on the other partition. Now, because I am very, very serious user or, with other words, I have very important data there, I am wondering, how much is smart to keep the image archive on the hard drive without burning it to the CD or DVD?

Well, hard drives are usually very tough components and designed to suffer really as much as necessary. Some CDs can last up to 7 years without so called fading of data. When you burn the data on a CD and after that you just nicely store the medium on a shelf or a drawer, it will be much more safer, rather than keeping the image on a hard drive. There is always a way to infect any file on your hard drive, right?
