What is DVD+R/RW?
DVD+R/RW is an erasable format based on CD-RW technology that became available in late 2001. It is supported by Philips, Sony, Hewlett-Packard, Dell, Ricoh, Yamaha, and others, though it is not supported by the DVD Forum. DVD+RW drives read DVD-ROMs and CDs, and usually read DVD-Rs and DVD-RWs, but do not read or write DVD-RAM discs. DVD+RW drives also write CD-Rs and CD-RWs. The DVD+RW format uses phase-change media with a high-frequency wobbled groove that allows it to eliminate linking sectors. This, plus the option of no defect management, allows DVD+RW discs to be written in a way that is compatible with many existing DVD readers. DVD+R/RW discs hold 4.7 gigabytes (GB) per side and are readable in many existing DVD-Video players and DVD-ROM drives.

Poor quality control,

This review is from: Ridata DVD+RW 4x 50-pack Spindle (Electronics)
I had high hopes since I have used their DVD-R's previously. The first disc had scratches and was damaged. It was also dirty with many particles present on the surface as well. The next few discs also were dirty. The product was returned to Amazon.

This review is from: Ridata DVD+RW 4x 50-pack Spindle (Electronics)
I just purchased the 25-pack spindle of this disc from Amazon. I had read the negative reviews here stating numerous problems/errors with them. Since there was a rebate involved, I wanted to verify the quality of the discs before I mailed off the UPC (and thereby nullify the possibility of returning them).
Using Nero on my Benq DW1620 drive, I ran a full-disc test burn w/verify at 4X on <u>all 25 discs</u>. Each and every one of them verified successfully. BTW, here are some of the specifics of the discs that I received, as reported by Nero CD Speed:Manufacturer: Ricoh Code: RICOHJPN W11Remember that not all drives, nor all media, are created equal. They don't always work well together. CD-R/RW had this same problem earlier on, but improved over time. It just so happens that Ritek/Ridata is a recommended brand of media for my drive. A quick web search should provide CD/DVD resources that can help pair your drive with a brand of media that has given good results. Manufacturers, too, sometimes list media that has been tested and "approved" for use with their drive(s).

This review is from: Ridata DVD+RW 4x 50-pack Spindle (Electronics)
I've almost finished burning my 3rd 25-pack spindle of these with no problems. I burned them using my Akai DVDRW120 stand-alone burning deck & my Plextor burner on my computer. I see the 25-pack has been discontinued! Why is it every time I'm happy with a product they stop carrying it? I just ordered the 50-pack spindle instead.
Update- Jan. 24, 2005 Only about half of the first dozen or so of the 50-pack spindle worked... & then just barely with many of the working discs skipping or locking up on parts. Not 1 of the rest of the spindle worked. They wouldn't even format! "Invalid Disk" error messages on most blank discs. These problems were observed on both my computer & my stand alone burner. About the 15th from the bottom I found 1 with a deep gouge & several deep scatches in it, but the rest looked spotless. I've also used up almost half of their 25-packs of DVD+R, DVD-R, & their DVD-RW with no problems on my computer, but my stand-alone burner will only burn on DVD+R & DVD+RW. There's definitlely something wrong with their 50-packs folks. They may be bad batches or they're too fragile to be packed on a 50-pack spindle & withstand the ruthless banging around of shipping. I noticed the 100 pack got 1 good review out of only 1 review. I'll wait to see more reviews on it. In the meantime, I did notice they're carrying the 25 pack spindles again... I'll stick with those.
