I've been using Ritek 8X 4.7 GB DVD - R's with no issues for over a year now. A friend gave me some Memorex 2X 8.5 GB + R DVDs and they've worked great too.
Now when I use the Riteks again, DVD decrypter only writes at 1.3X avg. speed. I updated the firmware on the drive and no change.
Here's a log from the latest backup. The last line of the log reflects a change I made after the burn was done. Any suggestions on why this is happening? How I can fix it?
Thanks!
