Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Featuring 2.8 GB of recording capacity--enough to hold 60 minutes worth of video camcorder footage--this three-pack of double-sided 2x Mini DVD-RAM discs is ideal for video and data recording. The discs are outfitted with Verbatim's hard- coat protection, which shields the discs from the types of scratches and abrasions that often occur during normal camcorder and home use. As a result, the discs hold up admirably over the long term. The discs' Random Access Recording (RAM) format, meanwhile, allows for fast data access, just like a hard drive. Compatible with Panasonic and Hitachi camcorders, the discs come packaged in slim jewel cases and are backed by a limited lifetime warranty.

What's in the Box
Three DVD-RAM discs, three slim jewel cases.

DVD RAM disks are not commonly available at most retailers, and when they are, one is asked to pay an arm and a leg. These appear to be every bit as good as any on the market. With Amazon's incredible pricing and quick delivery, the Verbatim DVDs are a truly great value.

I searched all over to try to find some discs that would work without a Hitachi DVD type camcorder that was given to me. There are any number of non-rewritable discs that work; however, they have to be formatted--and specially "finalized" before they can be desirably be used. Furthermore, oftentimes, their space cannot be efficiently used; plus, one has to continue to purchase the media. Obviously, the best option is to find rewritable discs. With rewritable desks, there are a number of other useful camcorder recording options not available with the DVD-R discs.

Regular DVD-RW discs won't work. The RAM discs are required. Again, finding them was a nightmare. Sometimes, when I found what "might" work, it was/they were expensive and the nature of the product is such that it can't really be returned after opening.

I was tickled when I found these at this link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000IIF8OW/ref=cm_cr_rev_prod_title
The product picture showed right on the front that these would work with Hitachi and Panasonic recorders. When I received the product, it did not look like the picture but the discs work--and perfectly. Not only that, they were reasonably priced--and are double-sided!
I'm very pleased with the product and the delivery time was very reasonable.

I like DVD-Rams because you can record and erase many times. I record quite a bit and have gone through many DVD's. I bought these because they were cheaper than the panasonic DVD-Rams. Unfortunately the Verbatim DVDs did not last nearly as long as the panasonics. I was only able to record 4 times before the disk failed. I had to cut sections from my recording to save what I had. Maybe this was just a bad disk, but it is not worth it for me to try again.
