Interesting. Promising results with the DL standalone playback tests!

Based on our DVD write tests, the recommended media to use along with this drive are as follows:
Ritek - For all supported formats

PioDATA - For the DVD-R format

Memorex - For the DVD+RW format

Overall, if you want a trouble-free burning experience, I highly recommend you get yourself some Ritek brand media. If the DVD-R format is an absolute must, and you are looking to burn at 8X, then I'd highly recommend the PioDATA 8X discs. They also burned and played flawlessly.
Uhhhh... sure...


Someimes I forget how good OC is at reviews. Then I read one's like this and remember again But I will say the compatibility news was interesting. Let's hope there are more tests with compatibility to look at soon.
