I've been using Verbatim 16x DVD+R to backup/burn games for a while now, but alot of the time the loading times can be VERY, very slow, and sometimes don't boot up at all/takes a while to boot. And now that I'm out of Verbatims, I figured I'd look around here to see if anyone suggests better media.

And so, I read around the forums, and I noticed that members were praising the Ritek G04/Ritek G05 discs and how they work flawlessly. And so..I took a look around the internet to see about these Riteks, and I came across this..I just wanted to know that if I'm looking at the right thing.




^Is that it? If so, then I have another question...Thing is, I've only come across the DVD-Rs, but the model of my PS2 is a SCPH-3000(something like that, don't remember exactly) and I heard DVD+Rs work better for that model or something like that. Should I just give the DVD-Rs a shot, or just try to find some DVD+Rs? Does anyone know a reliable site?

Do these really work THAT well?

yes those are it. I don't know where you heard +r is better for your model 'cause you heard wrong. Most older models like yours like -r better.

NTSC DNAS threads.
