Default Safe Restoring.

Hi,
Just wondered if there is a theoretical limit to how many images you can restore with a single HDD.
Ive performed approximately half a dozen restores and would like to know if there are any dangers in performing too many.
Thank You.

Beethoven1770,

I've restored thousands of images to the same HD in my test computer. It works as well now as it did on day one.

If the drive had been a SSD, I don't know the answer. But I suspect a lot of restores. I've already done about ten restores on the SSD in my main computer.

Only problem i have with windows imaging is it will not allow me to name the images so i know which one to restore properly.Im having to go by dates and some guesswork too.
It would be nice to know which image im restoring instead of guessing half the time.
