BEST SELLERS

In CD / DVD / Blu-Ray Media

I tested this using Opti Drive Control at 6x, 8x, 12x, 16x with a variety of relatively new drives: Lite-On iHAS124 F, Sony Optiarc AD-7280S (basically the same as the 5280S that is still being sold at Newegg) and Pioneer BDR-2208 (BDR-208M). ODC measures parity errors and failures across a given disc, as well as how well-defined the pits and lands on the disc are (a.k.a. jitter). Basically, you want consistent low numbers - pay attention to the average amount of parity errors; maximum amount of parity failures; and jitter across the board - with no sudden spikes. It's best to use a variety of scanning drives and burning speeds to get a good idea of burn quality, since writing drives, reading drives, and media all vary. Given how awful some of the cheaper, more marginal optical media can be in these tests - for example some of the Ridata and especially Moser Baer discs (the latter sold right now under the Sony label) - I was pleasantly surprised by how well these performed. Even at 16x, quality is pretty solid, especially on the iHAS124F, but also on the 7280S. (The BDR208M had a parity failure maximum of 5 in a few of the tests so I'd say it didn't keep up; average parity error rate was still OK though.) I found there to be a quality advantage when dropping down to a burn speed of 8x, but the difference between 16x and 12x seems to be marginal (or even sometimes detrimental). There also seems to be little advantage of burning at 6x instead of 8x. In general, for all the drives, the average parity error rate didn't really change much as I used faster burn speeds, but the max parity failure number usually went up when jumping from 8x to 12x and above. In case anybody's interested, I've posted screenshots of my tests online that can be found by googling "Optodisc DVD-R myce" and looking at page 3 onward. In any case, if burn quality is important to you, you're on a budget, and have a relatively new burning drive, these appear to be a good option. tl;dr - no coasters, burns quickly and reads great.

I love this product: 1. Due to the price is good better than other product. 2. I have use this DVD and BluRay for over 5 year now do not have any problem at burn 200 or 300 DVD see one bad. I am use about 1000 Disc per year for my customer. 3. Be aware. I use other burn brain do burn well but do not play with other DVD or Blu-ray. But when I am look to reference on manufacture recommend it is work well, for me I burn with LG WH14N540 DVD and Blu-ray.

I've been through 35 of them, and 34 burned perfectly fine with IMGburn.

I can burn at fast speeds with no coasters with my samsung SH-S203B burner.

Its a dvd. I guess to rank high I can say I have burnt about 25 so far with no coasters. I will say they are pretty and gold. From what I read they have a much better lifespan than regular CD/DVD media. I needed to combine some CD's into DVD's for archiving.

I am happy with this product to burn Video Events. It reads excellent.

Arrived quickly and works perfectly. They burn at about 6.2x and actually they look a little different than other BD-Rs that I've owned. Most of them are gold in color but these are more dark blueish sliver. So far so good.

no coasters and don't expect any from Verbatim

I do all kind of videos from mt Go Pro and remaster old 4:3 videos and never had a BD disc not record right. Been using them for about two years!

Good price when I bought them, about $2/disc, even better now. At the current price of ~$1 per disc they're a steal. In my experience Verbatim makes high-quality media; I've never had a single problem with any of their discs.

By selecting this brand I knew I will not have a problem. I use Verbatim already for Dual layer DVD, burned 100 without problem. Never an error during burning. I already burned 10 BD with no error.
