Please note that I am a dell tech...
Ok. There is a limit to CD RW, but the limit is uncertain. The maxium limit is 1000 times, but it can go over that. But I would say approximately 1000 times.
Have a great day.

There definitely is a limit to the number of times that you can rewrite these successfully. In general the advertised number is about 1000 times. However, in practice it is often much less than that. Ultimately the quality of the disc or manufacturer will determine how many re-writes you get out of it. I recommend you only use them 300 to 400 times, so guesstimate how many times you use it per day and give yourself a date to retire the disc before it fails on ya. Check out the article I linked for more information on CD-RW.

Yes, the limit is close to 1000, but why would you need to do that some many times? What I would do if I were you is that I would invest in a flash drive...the prices are dropping dramatically, and you can get a 2 GB drive for $20 or less, some places have even better deals. Plus it doesn't take as long to read/write, it's so much smaller, and holds so much more data.

1000 times no problem. Which is about as indefinite as you'll need. :)
