CMC MAG M01 is a common one for the 16x +R.

$23 per spindle of 100 is not cheap. Verbatim goes on sale for the same price, just wait till verbatim goes on sale. The burn quality for verbatim is a sure thing unless you are unlucky, getting a bad batch

I bought the 100 pack at Costco and they were exactly the same. I used about 10, they were terrible and I took them back, Costco is great about refunds.

TDK 16x +R in this part of the world is TDK003 made
in India. They don't mark the country of origin on the
packaging. I can only identify it from the MBI hub-code.
It burns quite well in the GSA-H22N.

8x +R are either YUDEN000T02 or CMC MAG E01
Both are excellent.

Re: OfficeMax TDK's DVDR+ media code?

I suggest the BenQ 1640@12x for RitekR05. It does a lovely job for me... but these are the Office Depot branded and not TDK:

Re: OfficeMax TDK's DVDR+ media code?

unless they are dirt cheap, then buy them, at at the weekly sale price, I wouldn't touch them. I will only buy them when stores either have anniversary sale or major holiday sale and mark them down like $14 for 100 or whenever costco have them on sale for BOGO deal, then I consider them.

From Costco buy one get one free sale. It is inkjet printable. It is MIT, I think. There is no TDK logo in the middle of disc.

Here comes bad news. I just open second 100pc cake package of MIT TDK+R 16X inkjet printable. It has TDK logo on the disc. The MID is CMC MAG M01.

P.S. When I bought them, they looked same in my eye.

Re: OfficeMax TDK's DVDR+ media code?

kinda weird, they put their logo on CMC MID and no logo on their own MID?? Suppose it the other way around since they should back up their products with their own proud logo??
Just my opinion

You can get very good prices for brands like Verbatim, Sony and Fuji on sale so there is no use to get TDK for the same price and gamble with the quality.

This is very true, but freaks will be freaks and want to try every MID out there. I find it fasinating that people would actually buy crap media when they know they can buy better for the same price or less.
