Hmmm well I just bought a pack of 5 DVD-R discs so if they don't work I'll exchange them for the +R. It looks like though that the odds are that it is -R.

SirNOS,

How many time are you planning on posting the same thing?
Double posting is against the rules. Please read the rules.

Yes double posting not only wastes time and bandwidth but it hurts the efforts to help.

Just two! No one was replying to my first post in the other one and I had to go out quickly so I had no choice. Allelujah!

RW is the logo of +R discs and burners. As far as I know HP DVD-5 RW burners are able to write maximum at X4 spped. Their packages are claiming X8 speed but a closer look states that they are capable to write the 8X discs!!!

Concerning your home dvd they don't care about +R/-R discs the only limitatios is the speed which has been used for burning. According to the brand there are limitations usually at X2/X4/X8 speed.
