Excellent quality! [Posted on 2007-03-06] These discs are a great buy. They are cheaper than other brands like Sony and Verbatim but perform just as good if not better. I have re-written over them about 20 times and they still play & copy fine.
May not be good for drag-and-drop (UDF) use [Posted on 2007-09-03] These disks seemed like a great deal. The 8x speed will write faster than a typical USB flash drive, and you get 25 of them pretty cheap. However I've tried using them with Nero's InCD for packet writing, i.e. you format them and then can use them for drag-and-drop copying and can erase selectively just like a floppy disk. They seemed to be working great, then after about 10 or fewer re-writes I started getting messages from InCD that "this disk is nearing the end of its useful life." So I tried doing a full erase which is normally supposed to fix this problem with RW's, but it didn't help. Only 10 rewrites is pretty poor performance for media that are often advertised as being good for 500-1000 rewrites. I am going to try burning them the regular way and see if they last any longer, but I will be surprised if the burning method would make any difference in their longevity.
