For one, you want to ALWAYS FINALIZE your backups.

Secondly, the type of media you use depends on the type of dvd-rom drive is in your xbox. I have a v1.0 Xbox with a Thompson, and it likes the DVD+R I use (haven't had any problems so far), so I would go with those. NEVER EVER EVER try CD-R, seeing how Xboxes don't read them. CD-RW are ok, but you can't really put games on there because of lack of space, but anything else (like a boot disc) is fine.
