I've never had any problems. I'm constantly burning/deleting/re-burning the same CD-RWs over and over at 48x and never had a single problem. Sure, after burning a few hundred MB onto them, they tend to be a bit hot, but nothings ever exploded. At least not.

It never happened to me but it did to a friend of mine. He even took a picture of the scattered CD into the CD-ROM drive.But CD exploding happens usually with cheap, crappy CD disks, associated with violent spinning CD-ROM drives.

No I've never had a CD explode but I watched them do it on myth busters. They used a motor for a saw and revved it up to a bunch of RPMs in order to get it to shatter.

My friends CD exploded in his PC dvd drive bay. He was playing Command and Conquer: Tiberian Sun when all of a sudden he heard a noise and shut down his computer...And then he figured out that the cd had exploded into little pieces. He just opened the drive and vacuumed it out and it was fine. :laugh:

Yeah, only once. It was a very old copy of Roller Coaster Tycoon. I put it into my laptop and next thing I hear is a loud squeaking noise coming from the drive. I open it up and it falls through the hole at the bottom of it.
