This depends what you mean. A CDRW left in the sun can be bleached, fade and loose data.
A hard drive can faded over a period of about 10 years or so and loose data as the disk surface oxide demagnetises.
In anycase, loss of data is just that, once it's gone it's not recoverable. Time to seek a back up solution.
