Verbatim 4x DVD-R Dual Layer reviewed by CDR-Zone

Written by Lasse Penttinen @ 27 Jun 2005 12:11 User comments (5)

The CDR-Zone has published an interesting media review of the Verbatim 4x DVD-R DL disc. Based on this review it seems that Mitsubishi and Verbatim have been able to maintain their excellent quality. Here is a quote from the conclusions of the review:

The reported Pi Error and PI Failure results in our Quality tests section showed very low error levels with generally very good beta/Jitter/TA and peak shifts results at a 4x recording speed. The exception to this was the Liteon 1693S with firmware KS04 which seemed to have very even beta although this disc was perfectly playable in our DVD standalone players capable of reading this media.

Most of our review recording devices saw the Verbatim 4x DVD-R Dual Layer media as having a maximum recording speed of 6x and we hope to bring you some overspeeding results via our Media forum as we manage to source some more pieces. Judging by the very good Quality tests results we are happy to predict that 6x recording should not be an issue for this media on any of the drives supporting 6x recording.Read the review at CDR-Zone.COM

While this is very good, I do hope it reads from the inside to the out on the second layer. Meaning hopefully us PS2 owners can backup GT4 and Xenosaga without the extra hassle lol.

I have been using Verbatim Media for quite a while now and have, not once, experienced any problems withDVD+ or -R's. Though the dual layers are tempting they are toooo expensive to use. Looking forward to the day when they're not such a rip off! Regards, Hendrik

Have found verbatim 2.5x dual layer discs to be excellent ( and they burn at 4x ). They will not play on some new dvd players though. Looking forward to trying the new 4x discs.

	Roomba Plus 505 Combo review - Surprisingly good and relatively affordable robot vacuum In our review, we go through the pros and cons of the obstacle-avoiding, mopping Roomba 505 Combo+ robot vacuum. During a long test period, the robot's cleaning performance was pleasing, but it was far from perfect.
	Review: Roborock Saros Z70 - robot vacuum with an arm In out in-depth review of Roborock Saros Z70 we put the robot vacuum through a 3 month test period, where we observed its work in normal home. The sci-fi -like arm of Z70 was a little bit disappointing, due its limited functionality.
	Roborock Saros 10 review - Great, but not perfect We tested Roborock Saros 10 robot vacuum for more than two months in order to see whether it is really worth its hefty price tag. The mopping, self-emptying Saros 10 was mostly great, even perfect. But its object avoidance was bit disappointing. 1 user comment
