I'm having to edit and modify virtually every post in the test forums to comply with the standard format for posting.

We really do appreciate every single post, we are building the only true database of media tests that's available anywhere!

Please everyone read the sticky threads in the respective test forums and familiarize yourself with the required format for posts. The reason we are so obsessive about the format is because of the way the search engine works. If the post is in the wrong format, then it shows up wrong in a search and nobody can tell what it is.

Suggest looking at the "how to search" stickies too so you can see what we mean when the posts come up in a search.

Thanks again everyone for the posts!

Just to summarize:
1) subject line should contain the media type and speed rating, and the burn speed.
2) 1st line of the body should be the drive model and firmware and size of the burn.
3) Next comes the media ATIP/ADIP data.
4) Then any comments you care to make, including the brand name of the media and scanning parameters.
5) Then either attach an image file or link to a hosted file.

Any post that does not contain the required information will be deleted.
