Hi

I have been using datawrite to burn my xbox1 backups and they have been great. What do you guys suggest for burning 360 backups.

I have read through the forums and verbatim seems the way togo however these are fairly expensive compared to other 8gb disks and most of the comments about these seem to have been made a while ago.

So have there been any changes in this aspect over the last few months now there are a number of suppliers of the disks, any comments would be great.

Cheers

Peter

yep i realise that the +r's are the way to go, however i would like to know if you can use any other media apart from verbatim and what you would recommend.

I use datawrite disks that are cheap and nasty (well 10 for £12) as i'm a tight bod. So far i have had no problems with them but maybe in the future they will stop working for me, we shall see :-/

I assume its datawrite titanium you are using if so i can probably save you some money :-)

DVD+R-c-310.html" target="_blank">http://www.ukdvdr.co.uk/shop/Dual-Layer-DVD+R-c-310.html <--- 25 for under £18

Just burnt my first game using verbatim and it works great :-)

But going to order up some of those datawrites and try them.

I only use Verbatim DVD+R DL for my 360 backups and Sony 16x DVD+R for my ps2 backups. Never had 1 single problem yet.

That is the site I use but had not seen this offer yet. I dont normally use the titanium, just the pritable disks (right at the bottom of your link) but for that price I will give them a try. Cheers for that, I'd best get ordering :-)

you can pretty much use whatever media you want, it is just if you use a lesser quality media just burn the image on a slower speed, and/or use a firmware with slower read speeds(extreme 3.3, 4.0b, 4.1b, 4.2b)
