i bought some dynex DVD-R from bestbuy, will theese be any good for burning on a sony burner
i will be burning pictures and data backups
but i want to be sure that they last long
thanks
what speed are the dynex rated? reason i ask is that the 4x rated DVD-R are pure crap...with your choices of AML, AN31, CMC MAG AF1, VDSPMSAB 01, among other variations...with the ONLY decent one being the MCC 01RG20 coded ones, which is just a luck of the draw of you actually getting....
the 16x rated Dynex are RITEKF1 coded, which i personally haven't tried yet, so i can't give you an honest judgement on the quality, but they SHOULD be decent enough if you are only burning pictures and data backups as you stated...
the DVD+R format for Dynex is actually better with a few Ritek made discs in the bunch...RitekR03 for the 8x DVD+R and RICOHJPNR03 for the 16x dvd+r~ :)
i would run your dynex DVD-R through a dvd identifier program to see what you actually got, for YOUR sake, i hope you didn't get the 4x rated ones...
