RiDATA 4.7GB 8X DVD-R Thermal Printable 50 Packs Spindle Shiny White Disc Model DRD-47-8X-RDSW502 - OEM

Pros: I've burned 9 of them so far. There was 1 coaster, but that was likely from my PC.

Cons: The disc ID's say they're Ritek G05's.

Overall Review: The 8 discs that passed verification all work perfectly. I didn't lower the rating because I believe my PC is to blame for the 1 failure. By the way, pay attention when you open them. They're sandwiched between two plastic plates and wrapped in plastic. No spindle.

Pros: I like the DVD's, they've all gone well with the exception of a single DVD(user error, computer went into sleep mode, causing the error) but that aside I've seen no problems, I've used these DVD's to back up some of my steam games. The surface is great to write on, and looks nice and sleek, burning has also gone as smooth.

Cons: None! - absolutely nothing wrong with these discs as they've all been fine, at first I started writing at 4x(lowest drive speed), as it gives the least amount of error's, then tried 8x and still had no problems to date.

Overall Review: some might notice that the readable space is 4.3 and not 4.7 as advertised, thats because space is sold by the kilobyte i believe, not by the megabyte as it should be...

Pros: I've burned 45 out of 50 and not a single coaster. The solid white thermal cover is nice, too.

Cons: Only 8x.

Overall Review: These are a good deal for the price.

Pros: Price, price, price. 'Nuff said

Cons: Lack of data osmosis. They sit on the tower, but still don't absorb my data. :(

Overall Review: Really, the simple things in life count. Optical media should just work, and reliably at that. I've never had a problem with these. Burning, labelling, writing w/marker on surface, using as quick impromptu mirror. Same media that gets sent to re-brander manufacturers and end up in your brick-and-mortar's for shameful markup.

Pros: I have bought 3 of these over the past year. never had a single problem that wasn't my fault. The are durable quality. I don't even print on them. Sharpie print works fine. I burn videos at 4x to avoid skipping so the write speed is irrelevant. If I make a mistake.. trash.. who cares. these are cheap.

Cons: none

Overall Review: save your old spindles because this doesn't have one. it is wrapped where you can stick it on and then remove the plastic. can't complain at this price.

Pros: Great price

Cons: have had about an 1/8 to a 1/4 of them that have failed or have just skipped a sector.

Pros: Cheap. Easy to write on surface. I have only used a few of them but they all have burned well.

Cons: None

Pros: The white cover is more like a shiny pearl white, but was actually nice and easy to write on with a sharpie. Still attract finger prints though. Doesn't smell bad (a chemical smell with other blank medias).

Cons: None

Overall Review: Works as advertised, I would buy again.
