verbatim 16X DVD

2008-03-25
I was not satisfied at all. I was looking for Light scribe DVD's & this was listed under that category. When the order came in I contacted Media Supply in order to return the product. Still to this date nobody has responded to my email.

DVD-R discs

2008-03-18
I recently installed a DVD drive in my HP Pavilion computer to augment the existing CD drive. These discs were my first trial with DVD burning. They work perfectly, and for some odd reason my drive insists on burning them at 18 X speed which still seems to work well. I'll definitely buy this brand again. I find that when you find discs that your drive "likes", it's best to stick with them. My CD drive loves TDK discs. Go figure.

Affordable and reliable.

For the price and performance, Verbatim products can seldom be beaten. Do not let the price tag fool you: there are DVD-Rs for sale at 15-20 cents each (these are 50 cents), but fail to deliver whereas these are flawless. 25 burns and 25 successes, all at 16x as advertised. I've ordered another couple of hundreds. Great performance! Highly recommended.

Verbatim DVD-R

This was my first experience with -R discs. Product produced no coasters for the whole 25 discs in the first spindle. My DVD burner did not want to burn them at anything above 4X, but I never go above 8X on Lightscribe discs anyway.

First Class Blanks

2007-03-28
I use only class 1 blanks for archiving photos. Using the DVD Identifier software, these are the best disks. Many manufacturers make good disks but then get subcontractors to make runs for price competitive disks with their name. These disks are both price competitive and Class 1.

Perfection

Verbatim's DVD-R media are compatible with DVD-R drives and are read compatible with most DVD-ROM drives and DVD-Video players. Use Verbatim DVD-R media for a data archiving, PC backup, audio/video recording, and more.

No frisbees yet

These DvD's are working great in our new Samsung DVD-R player.
We have made about 10 copies and I will be ordering another round soon.

I have used these Verbatim brand 16X disks in both my DMR-EH50S Panasonic DVD Recorder (recording content from the television to its hard drive and then after editing the content, burning it to DVD media) as well as my pc computer's NEC ND-3500AG 16X DVD burner and all I can say is how pleased I have been.

These burn very very fast at 16X and I have not had any failures using them -- absolutely no errors so far!

I have used other popular brands of 16X speed DVD media including Taiyo Yuden, Philips, Maxell, Memorex, TDK and while those also have burned very dependably (with a few exceptions) there is one capability I have noticed that the Verbatim brand possesses that those other brands do not. And that is I can squeeze more video and file content onto these Verbatim disks whereas with those other brands I cannot! There is a little more storage space on these! That has made a difference at critical moments in which I needed to fit those extra few megabytes onto the same disk.

I am on my third 25 disk spindle and undoubtedly will opt for the 100 disk spindle when the time comes to replenish my supply.

I have decided that I won't use any of those other brands until either the manufacturing quality of these changes for the worse or they stop making them altogether -- I hope neither happens.

Anyway, these are as near to perfection for burning video and files onto as I have been able to find and I recommend them to you heartily!
