Saving into cd is consuming the memory of the cd itself, while saving the files or music, etc on the hardives, means consuming its memory allocation[hardisk]. which is more convinient because on cd, it might be scrathed and damaged, it will loss your files, while on the hard drive, just search its directory, and that's it. it all has to offer.

CD may be permanent if only RW. Much less storage on CD and CD portable whereas hard drive usually not.

With a CD you have a backup . If your computer crashes then you can have your files. Backing up to the hard drive is not advisable. If it crashes you are out of luck.
