Does frequent restoration with images hurt the hard disks?

Hi, ALL. I heard that frequent restore with the backed up images would hurt
the hard disks and reduce the expentacy of them. Is it true or not? thanks.

Do not trust whoever you heard that from because it is not true. Restoring
an image is no different then the writing to a disk drive that goes on when
one merely powers up a computer with XP.

Completely not true...and ridiculous!

Newsgroup...

When I restored the backup, the disk running with louder sound than in the
normal circumstance...
