Hi

burned at 32x [allegedly]
Sony branded Daxon MIT CD-R

Womi · 09-08-2008

Where is your problem

C1 errors and jitter are absolutely in spec. Your Samsung decided to slow down to 16x for some reason but that shouldnt happen on every CD-R.

I see no problem with the latest one either?

It burned at 32x, as required. Scan and TRT look alright.

Probably the Sammy slowed down on the first one due to varying quality of the media?

Thanks for Arachne,

So there is nothing to worry about? Good... I just bought crap cheap media, b/c i could not find Verbatim branded CMC Magnetics CD-Rs on sale!

I wouldn't call it 100% crap. It's just not up to Verbatim standards ['cause it's not Verbatim]. But it's still good for day-to-day use.

When you start getting a bunch of C2 on a normal scan, then you should start calling it complete crap.

Hi Albert,

look at this:

**Albert** · 21-08-2008

NOW they're cruddy.

How does it look scanned on the Samsung? [Yes, I know about MediaTek DVD drives & CDs]

Hi Albert,

It would scan with C2 errors but would freeze Windows requiring a reboot!

EDIT: A couple of days ago i just bought 150 MIT Verbatim CD-Rs.

Thanks for responding,

Holy... Sony Daxons? I have Verbatim Daxons that are MIM that fares a lot better than that. I've only gone through about 30 discs (of 2x100 spindles) and I haven't encountered that (yet).

Your latest scan is pure and absolute crap. No doubt. Are there any physical/visual defects on the disc that is apparent?

HI evo69,

My Sony branded Daxons are MIT...

There are no defects that i can see. I am going to junk the whole lot!

Thanks

What a waste ain't it? Better than figuring out where all your data went after a few months of burning on bad discs.

Better luck on your next purchase. I've never had such a negative experience with Sony media and I stick with Verbs or Sonys when I can get my hands on them. No doubt that quality varies.
