Customer Review: Unsafe at Any Speed
Summary: 1 Stars
Update January, 2008.
As I note in some of the commentary, things can change a lot in two years. It's entirely possible that the "same product" that I had such bad experience with two years ago, is actually very different today. While I avoid TDK products because they burned me with poor quality, users seeking cost-effective and reliable media would probably be better off giving more weight to more recent reviews (which might better reflect whatever they are currently putting in this package) and/or a site that tracks media quality, such as http://www.digitalfaq.com/media/dvdmedia.htm (although they don't seem to be updating that one any more), where among many other details you can find that TDK-branded packages have included media actually manufactured by TDK, CMC, Moser Baer, and Philips.
My original review follows. FYI, I have no interest in TDK or any other media mfr other than as a user.
These disks are not made by TDK (they only make -R type) they are rebranded trash from CMC. I had 15% with obvious, naked-eye visible defects (delaminations and voids in the dye layer) and for the "good" ones needed to burn at a sluggish 4X to get a decent quality of burn. Having burned more than 1000 disks using various brands, I assure you - these are not a bargain, they are garbage. Unless, of course, you burn at slow speeds and don't ever use the outer 20% of a disk.
UPDATE [late 2006]: I have been re-reviewing the burn quality of the disks that I did use. I am now finding hundreds of thousands of parity errors on every TDK disk (vs a typical 2 to 4 thousand on good disks e.g. Sony). THESE ARE WITHOUT DOUBT THE WORST DVD MEDIA I HAVE EVER USED. ANYONE WHO ENTRUSTS THEIR DATA TO THIS GARBAGE IS DOOMED TO DISASTER IF THEY EXPECT TO BE ABLE TO READ THE DATA IN AS LITTLE AS A YEAR OR TWO.
