Customer Review: Stay away from 8x Verbatim
Summary: 1 Stars
Verbatim has changed the manufacture process of their discs with the 8x. The dye has serious flaws in 80% or more of the discs. Normally I would recommend these to anybody interested in backing up data. Now I say stay away from these. Out of 15 discs only 3 are barely readable. 12 coasters. I would expect this from Memorex but not Verbatim. Stick to 2.4x discs if you can still find them. I used a brand new Pioneer burner with all of these so I know my drive is not failing. It burns everything else very well including the HP Dual Layer discs. Extremely disappointed.
Please take note I am referring to the purple box not the orange one. Never had a single problem from those. Depending on your chosen software for burning check and see if the disc ID number MKM-003-00 (or something close to that - must have the 003) appears. If it does.. do not even attempt to burn or else you will have just lost an hour of your day and a very expensive disc.
Customer Review: 8.5 GB 8x DVD+R
Summary: 5 Stars
I have used 4 out of 5 all copied to the disk at 8x speed. Not one failed and all the information/movies are perfectly fine as of now. Of course like any DVD+R copied information is lost over a very long period of time, but I cannot comment on life span for these disks since I just got them. Space and 8x speed is what I needed and that is exactly what I got. Great product.Customer Review: Unlucky
Summary: 4 Stars
2 out of the 5 turned into coasters. That's a horrible odd in my opinion, but I've been suspecting that my DVD Writter is going south for some time. I've never had any problems with any Verbatim product, so I'm going to take only one star off since there is always the chance that it was indeed the medias fault.Customer Review: Burned through 20 of these AWESOME discs!
Summary: 5 Stars
These were such a good price on Amazon, I bought four boxes!
I just finished burning through them today. NOT ONE COASTER. YAY.
I love these. I'm ordering MORE. I wish they sold them by the case.
I'm using my Sony DRX-840u to burn on these.
LOVE THESE. I'm ordering more and more :)
Customer Review: Bad News DVDs
Summary: 2 Stars
I've recorded on many DVD+R discs on my Sony GX-355 without any problems. I've used the first 2 out of 5 of these Verbatum DL DVDs so far and both have failed. . After 1 and 1/2 hour of recording, "disc err" appears and then the signal "this disc can neither be played nor recorded".
