Digital camera reviews of Memorex 8.5GB 8X Double Layer DVD+R (25pk Spindle)
Digital camera Review: Why do stores still sell these?
Summary: 1 Stars
I have made the mistake of bying these twice and i end up with a bunch of coasters.i have never had one work yet.strongly do not recommend them to anyone.the memorex 2.4X work just fine these are awful.Digital camera Review: Will not read in DVR
Summary: 1 Stars
I had recently bought the 15 pack of this Memorex product. My new Toshiba DVR would not read any of the discs. As it is loaded in the recorder, a notice will come up stating that the disc may not playback. I wish there was a way to figure this out beforehand, as I have many VHS tapes that need a longer playing disc. Hopefully, it is just a matter of changing brands of discs (as opposed to buying a different brand of DVR). I should have more thoroughly reseached and read these reviews. It is very important to know which kinds of discs are compatible with the kind of equipment you have.Digital camera Review: Worked for me...
Summary: 5 Stars
I've burned 10 straight without one failing with this same package. I bought mine from best buy so I dont know how that could be different. The first disk on top was shanked up a little but the rest I have not had an issue with.Digital camera Review: Worked great for me every time
Summary: 5 Stars
I have burned 3 movies with no problems it does take longer to burn but for the price I am willing to have it take a little longer, it worked fine every time used it I have the cyberlink burning system these are compatible.Digital camera Review: Worked perfectly, exactly as advertised
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm pretty confused by the bad the reviews. I burned 17 of the 25 so far with no problems. All were burned at 8x. I verified each disc on a separate machine and there are no errors. For the price, these are clearly a great buy.
For those that had problems, I wonder if it's the discs that have problems or the equipment? It's impossible for me to say, but I do notice either hot (4 or 5 stars) or cold (1 star) reviews. These leads me to believe it's not the discs, but whether the burners and the discs like each other.
Given that, my recommendation is to buy these and try them out. If you have a lot of failures return it and buy another brand (and pay more). Otherwise, keep them and be happy you get a bargain.
