Philips DVD+R 2.4X 100Pk in Spindle
They are only 2x, but thats what I burn all my disc anyway.

I have a Mad Dogg Multimedia MD-16XDVD9 burner and a Toshiba SD-M1212 DVD Reader/Rom

I used Philips DVD-r 8x media and Memorex DVD-r 8x, 2 coasters out of 100, but they were my fault(can't copy on the fly w/ Nero

Phillips,eh? So they are CMC produced discs? Not really worth it when you can get 4x and 8x discs for pretty close to the same price. *EDIT* it should also be noted that you will need to factor in shipping costs so it isn't a good deal at all. Burning at 2x is a waste of time at this point unless you only have an old 2x burner.

the 4x is $30, but I burn my ps2 games a 2x anyway

**Jesterrace** · 03-03-2005

The 4x is $30+shipping. I can get 4x (possibly 8x) Taiyo Yuden media in a 100 pack for $30 shipped from supermediastore. I would take TY over Phillips (CMC Mag) anyday.

2X in 100 spindle?? WoW, you will save big time on media since it will take approximately a few years to finish burning 100 discs at 2X. That way you dont have to stock up for a few years

*Braxas* · 04-03-2005

The 4x Philips CMC Magnetics discs are good though - at least the +R's. CMC Mag F01's that burn off beautifully at 4x and can overspeed pretty well to 8x. The BenQ does a nice job on these.

for my games I prefer quality over quanity. What good is it anyway if the station dosen't read it?

2x does not automatically equal quality, especially when burning high speed media at such a low speed. High quality DVD media can be burned at its rated speed and played back just fine.

Discs are labelled a specific speed because the dye has been designed to be used with a specific laser strength & exposure period.

You'd perhaps burn them at lower speed was if the drive had a different burning strategy at lower speed, ie P-cav or Cav, versus Zoned CLV as it eliminates the laser being turned off between sections & hence a possible synch error on devices that have out-of-spec tolerances.

Or maybe if using the writer in an old PC or in an external case which cannot keep up with the bandwidth required.
