Memorex 4.7GB 8x Printable DVD+R (100-Pack Spindle)

I have had a lot of luck with Memorex DVD+R in the past but unfortunately my luck ran out with this 100 pack. Memorex discs are made by several different companies. Some disc manufacturers are known for quality and some are known for putting out useless garbage. The Memorex 4.7GB 8x Printable DVD+R (100-Pack Spindle) that I received was made by CMC, a company well known for it's garbage. I thought about returning the spindle right away but I thought I would try them to see how well they worked. Well, their reputation of making garbage is well deserved. So far I have gone through 30 of the 100 discs and have had 25 coasters that did not pass Nero's verify disc process and produced lots of errors in Nero's scan disc. It didn't help to burn these at a slower 4x, they were still garbage. The last spindle of Memorex printable DVD+R that I purchased right here on Amazon was the 4x 100 pack. They turned out to be made by MCC, a company well known for its quality. I didn't have any problems with them at all. Some of the Memorex non-printable discs I have purchased were made by Ritek, a company with a decent reputation. I had very few problems with them as well. So if you're looking for some DVD+R printable media I'd have to recommend avoiding this 8x and sticking with the 4x Memorex for now. Hopefully Memorex will go back to using quality manufactures to making their products for them.

I wish I had seen the other review before ordering this. He was right on the money! Unfortunately I used these DVD+R's to make some Christmas gifts and already gave them out. I have had such good luck w/ Memorex CD and DVD products in the past I guess I just started taking it for granted. I'm sure I'll have friends calling me in the next week or two asking why the DVD's don't work for them. Maybe I'll just point them to this product on Amazon's site and wish them a Merry Christmas. I'll probably order the 4x pack today and try to get them back out between Christmas and New Years day.

A statement well made, stick with the 4x DVD+R from memorex. I have gone through many of them and have had no problems. I have a HP300i 4x internal burner and a LiteOn external 12x burner and neither have had any media related issues w/ the Memorex 4x products.

Hope this helps!

All the previous reviews need to be updated. CMC Mag's 8X or speedier media have improved significantly since the 4X. As long as your burner is not one of those 1st or 2nd generation (AKA 2.4X or 4X) burners which do not have the writing strategy for the faster media like the 8X (requires firmware update); then you should have no problem with the new CMC media. Anyway, it is still not worth 70 cents a piece, maybe 50 cents.

In general, the quality of newer media starts from 8X is much better for all manufacturers, but I still don't want to touch Optidisc, Princo, and An32 media code discs.

DON'T DO IT!!!!

THINK AGAIN!!!!

In truth I insult good garbage. These discs are worse.

Over the past year I used over 500 4x printables, and in thaqt time I had 1 Coaster. 7 out of 7 with these. Discs always gave disc dirty error in player. Defects in the media itself. Visible to the naked eye on 3 of them.

Returned the rest of the spindle for a refund.

If you need your media to work the first time, you cannot trust Memorex.
