Ritek/Traxdata 8X DVD+R DL White DVD-R (50 Units, Double Layer)

Despite alot of negative reviews about this product, I thought I'd take a chance on them because of the price. I use them for backing up data and have not had a dud yet. I think alot of the problem people have with these discs is actually with their DVD writer. I use a DVD writer in my Acer Laptop Circa 2010 with no problems. Its really important that you examine the logos on your DVD writer to make sure that it supports your disc format. If it only displays 'DVD +R DL' then use these discs not the '-R' variety. Just because it displays 'RW' does not automatically mean you can create ROM disc with them. Do some research before you buy to make sure you get the disc your drive supports.

Item arrived a day early and well packaged.I have used this make of disc's for many years and always found them reliable, I can't remember the last time I had any toasters and I use cheep dvd burners that cost around £12.00.

The discs came without a tub so be aware of that when ordering.The discs themselves though are of pretty good quality. I find that they burn very well using Ashampoo burning studio 10, every disc has burnt well so far and I am about 1/4 way through them. I have no coasters yet and don't expect any.Printing the discs has also gone very well. They take the ink well and look great. Using my Epsom R300 the ink dries virtually straight away. I always leave them for a couple of hours before storing them away but sometimes have done it straight away and had no trouble. I sometimes check the disc has burnt correctly after printing and this has also been fine with no spreading of the ink.

These are NOT Ritek as specified in the description, they are Umedisc. No, I haven't heard of them either.I tried 4 discs in 2 different burners and all 4 are coasters.For the above reasons I shall be seeking a full refund. Also the descriptions says 'Spindle', but they come without one.

Have burned around 10 - 15 DVDS on my Mac Book Pro external LG DVD burning drive and only 1 unsuccessful - this is only because I was using an internet browser at the time and moved my mouse about. I find that by not using or launching any applications during the burning process would increase the rate of successful burns.I am really happy with the success rate of 100% (achieved only when I do not interrupt the burning process) using this media. Only down side is that the product doesn't come with a DVD spindle box.

This is cheap for a reason. If anyone it contemplating to buy, I advise do not waste your money and time. I have edited several videos as such I have used DVDs for quite a while. This has been the worst if there was a way to rate negative I would have given the last mark in negative. I have burnt several DVDs and each one has a problem. Out of 50 none has given any good result.I will go back to Verbatim.

These are very good quality every one tried so far have burned perfect. Very difficult getting good quality 8.5GB Double Sided DVD's these days.

I’ve always used these discs wit great results price is unbeatable can’t see me changing
