I do. It was the first time that I copied about 50 or 60 GB (to consolidate) that I noticed how hot they got. When I noticed that, I then started doing it a little at a time. I was sweating for a few days before I was satisfied my data was still ok. I'm surprised the heads/arms, and platters didn't expand enough to screw up things. A lot of the data was on a server across the world, so note really a problem if I'd have lost it - except for the time involved transferring.
As for off-brand CDRs, I still have about 400 or so to put on HD before they become "lossy"
. I hope I make it.
