| I bought recently a lg ggw-h20l and with it came a BD-RE, wich is very usefull to make experiences before burn in others definitly. The problem is that image burn says it has to be formated before burning anything, but after some time it gives me an error message. I even tried to format with windows, but with no results so far. Could anyone give me a help? Thanks. |

| The disc is probably bad. The disc that came with my lg burner lasted about 10 writes before crapping out. Buy some Verbatim BD-RE's for reliability. |

| Hi
I bought a GGW-H20L last dec from newegg. I got a blank LG BD-RE 25GB disc. I could not format it also. It is a defective disc. I called Newegg. They said I can mail both the Drive and unusable Disc they will mail a new drive and blank also. I di dnot want to do that. I called LG support line. After 2-3 months of hassle with them, finally got a replacement disc. It worked for a while (may be 8-10 re writes). After that it keeps giving error while reading. basically it is useless. I bought verbatim 25GB RE and also several Memorex BD-RE (25G). TDK 50GB-RE and SONY 50GB RE. They all work fine. Try and bug the LG or whover sold this to you. |

| No doubts about this disc that come together with the LG GGW H20L is a piece of crap.
After some recordings it fails completely and is impossible to erase it!! You could look here in this forum posts about this problem and on others like this www.htforum.com/vb :evil: :!: :x :shock: with this disc!!! |

| The LG BD-RE that comes with the burner is junk, it worked 5 times for me and crapped out. |

| Completely useless the disc that comes with the drive. I bought a BD-RE from Sony and is working just fine. |
