The life span of a recorded disc depends upon such things as the intrinsic properties of the materials used in the disc's construction, its manufactured quality, how well it is recorded and its physical handing and storage. Verbatim carries out accelerated age testing by subjecting samples of its discs to environments that are beyond those experienced under normal storage conditions. Based on its extensive testing, Verbatim offers the following guidelines:

* Verbatim DVD-R and DVD+R - about 100 years
* Verbatim DVD-RW, DVD+RW, and DVD-RAM - about 30 years
