| |  | | DVD+R: Quality Media Storage DVD+R is a rewriteable format with a storage lifetime intended for storing videos and archiving important business or personal data. Compared with CD-Rs, DVD+Rs offer more storage space and faster write times, making them a natural choice for preserving media and other large files. Each Smart-mp3Basics DVD+R disk can record up to two hours of DVD+quality video programming. A single DVD+R can also hold three hours of VHS-quality video or more than 60 hours of MP3 audio. DVD-R Compatibility There are two types of recordable DVD disks available. Almost all recent DVD players and drives can handle both burned DVD-R and DVD+R disks, but some older players can only read one format or the other. It is important to check your player’s manual to determine which DVD type it supports. 16X Write Speed and Organic Dye: Built for Fast, Accurate, Quality Writing Smart-mp3Basics DVD+R disks enable fast write speeds from 2.4X to 16X (16X is maximum. Burning speed will fluctuate.) for quick, clean data transfer. (To take full advantage of these speeds, your DVD burner must burn at speeds of at least 16X. Consult your computer or DVD burner product manual for this information.) At 16X, transfer speed translates to 21.60 MB/s, which means that you can burn a full disk in less than four minutes. The organic dye used on the write side of these DVD+Rs provides stable writing at high speeds for reliable, accurate finished disks.

I have been using these to move data to computers not on my network and then just toss the disc out after the transfer. The design and branding on the spindle case and the disc themselves is very simple, almost amateurish, but I suppose that is how they are able to bring these to market at such a low price. Bottom line- they store data just fine so don't be afraid to save money by buying blank media from Smart-mp3. The blank media at my local drug store costs twice as much and am not excited about driving to a computer superstore just to buy blank DVDs, so I ordered the 100-pack of these DVD+Rs and I'm happy to report they work as advertised. I burned 1800 photos onto one the other night using a Sony DVD drive at 16x speed in about 15 mins, while watching TV on the pc at the same time. (yes, they are rated at 16x, but I like to be conservative when I'm not in a hurry) At 20 cents each, |
