Next weeks ads (6/18/06 US)

BWigg · 20-06-2006

I flashed back to BCDB,and will try some more latter. When I get a chance I will post some scans of the ones burnt in my Liteon and NEC. BTW the number I see is D0127C20512R.

*ghetocowboy* · 20-06-2006

hahaha, BWigg, you got ripped off, did you see my RicohJPHR03 Scan, near perfection, and by the way, the serial number starts with D110*******R, bought it a couple of weeks ago, $20 for a spindle of 100 OD 16X +R. Well I burnt it with my BenQ 1640. I will test it on The 1655 and my NEC 3500 when I have a chance.

*RickDriver* · 21-06-2006

The top disc on my spindle of OD +Rs had the # D110.....R (which is why I bought the pack), but the others are D012.......R.

*HenryNettles* · 21-06-2006

Well, my order of Office Depot branded 16x +R discs arrived today. The first spindle is RICOHJPNR03, and here is the first burn. About what I expected, not great but fairly good for 17 cents each delivered.

This is burnt on my Benq1655 at 12x using ImgBurn.

**alan1476** · 21-06-2006

Very decent Henry, for .17 each I think you got a good buy. Now that Tys are alsmost extinct in retail stores it is great that you and other are willing to try these medias. I thankyou.

*reasonsnotrules* · 21-06-2006

@HenryNettles, what is the serial number on those? is it the same as ghetocowboy's awesome burn or something different?

BWigg · 21-06-2006

Two more scans from the same batch as earlier. One burnt in a Liteon 165P6S with MS0N and the other in a NEC/Mad dog 4550 with 1.F2. I can't remember which burn is in which drive.

willmore · 21-06-2006

The OfficeDEPOT DVD+RW media in the newer looking packaging (solid dark blue around a white inner label) at my store was RITEK0040. Checking out how it works right now. Too bad CDSpeed 4.5.1 can't 'create test disc' on a DVD+RW with my SHM-165P6S. Wierd. Having to resort to 'other means'. Report to come.....

*ghetocowboy* · 21-06-2006

WoW, you are really got robbed BWigg, I am sure the ritek F16 will burn better than that. Did you just pick random spindles or were you trying to locate D110*****R spindles??

@HenryNettles, burn a 2nd disc, your solid burn has kicked in and your firmware has learned the disc. I am sure you will see improvement.
And you are so lucky to even get ricohjpnr03 since you have them delivered. You could end up getting Ritek.

BWigg · 21-06-2006

Geez you guys know how to make someone feel good! The Office Depot DVD+R media was in the newer looking packaging. I didn't look at every pack, but most had d0127 in the serial number. Funny thing is that they play fine and have a good transfer curve when read.

*MegaDETH* · 21-06-2006

Can you post a kprobe scan of these disks??

*KTL* · 21-06-2006

I picked up more OD +R media yesterday and here is what I found.

1) D0124*** = RiTEK R05
2) D0127*** = RICOHJPNR03
3) D1108*** = RICOHJPNR03
4) VR5P16*** = RiTEK P16

BWigg · 21-06-2006

2) D0127*** = RICOHJPNR03

I would love to see what your results are!

*KTL* · 21-06-2006

I'll try it when I get home from work.

I will later tonight when I get home from work.

*MegaDETH* · 21-06-2006

Great, I just wonder seeing they play well if it's just the benQ jitter showing high errors, kprobe should give us a better view of what's going on.

thanks

D0711020103R is the number I find on my RicohJPNR03.

Does the number on this disc end with an R?

*KTL* · 21-06-2006

Yes.

*RickDriver* · 21-06-2006

Thanks.

*reasonsnotrules* · 22-06-2006

i just got back from my office depot. i didn't buy any...every single spindle has a big sticker over the top. they looked like packing labels almost like you'd see on the outside of a box. i tried to pull one off but it started to rip. then i tried to peel it back from the other side and it started pulling the plastic off so i gave up.

every single spindle was covered like this.

i didn't want to take the chance so I just left.

i'm getting ready to bite the bullet and jump on the next decent online deal fot good media. it's really too abd because shopping and finding bargains is one of my favorite hobbies.

also, i remembered as I walked into office depot today that they also to the $3 off with an ink cartridge. I think they're pickier than staples is as far as what ink cartridges they accept. I didn't think before i left the house. If i had had an ink cartridge on me I probably would have taken a chance on one of those spindles. oh well.

Here is one of "North Country" with Kprobe.

*MegaDETH* · 22-06-2006

Ahh it is ugly then.

Was hoping for your sake it was just the benq jitter but it doesn't look that way.

*KTL* · 22-06-2006

Ok, got some results.

RICOHJPNR03 w/D1108*** @ 16x CAV
RICOHJPNR03 w/D0127*** @ 12x PCAV
RICOHJPNR03 w/D0127*** @ 16x CAV

One more question. Does the serial # printed on the center of the disc in black start with "K"?
