Addendum to a past post: I have since purchased an NEC ND3550a DVD writer, and it definitely does not like Ritek G05. I have burned hundreds of G05s on other burners with few coasters, but this seems to be the only media the 3550a does not get along with. Worse still, there are no reliable indicators of burn failure - you have to do a DOS File Compare (FC.EXE /b) to find out. This happens at both 8x and 4x speed (others not tested).

Media is supposed to be 8x, but I've gotten nothing but errors when I burn @ 8x. 6x gives me mixed results, but mostly errors. Seems to work best @ 4x, but that defeats the purpose of buying 8x media. I would not recommend unless you don't mind burning @ 8x.

First bought Memorex 25 pack (FUJIFILM03,8x, -R), had no problems burning them at 8x. A few weeks later, BestBuy had the 50 pack (RitekG05, 8x, -R) on sale for $20 so I bought those not knowing they were Ritek. Can't burn these with my Optorite DD1205 (120e FW) at 8x, unless I need new coasters. Although, they are reliable at 4x. Hence my rating of "Poor" for burning reliability. Disks play fine on my players (Coby DVD-507, and Audiovox STS-93). Doesn't play on my brother-in-law's Sony (don't know model #).

The Ritek media did not work reliably for me. My Plextor 712A has not made a single coaster with this stuff, and it all verifies, but the Plextor cannot reliably copy files back to the HD from Ritek media it has burned. My DVP642 will recognize and play most of a movie burned on this media, but will more often than not run into problems near the end of a film. Symptoms include freeze up, stop and go, or skipping scenes. I do not trust the compatibility of this stuff with my hardware.

I think I may have posted this in the wrong section before. I recognize the example picture posted as exactly the same spindle as I had. Couldn't get a single one to work. Computer recognized the discs, but I couldn't get any of my programs to copy to them (Click to DVD, Sonic RecordNow, or Windows Drag and Drop copying). Tried it on 4x and 2x.

Bestbuy had a deal (11/7/04)for "buy one get one free" for a 50pack of DVD-Rs (100 total). I was shocked to find out that some are CMC MAG and some are RitekG05 (8x). In one spindle the first 2 and last 1 discs were a little spotty/scratched and thus not reliable and in the other spindle the first and last 1 had a little imperfection. My burner would only copy the bad discs @ around 0.5x vs an average of 5x ripping speed. Burning with the same video with non scratched discs worked beautifully.
