Ridata DRD+858-RDIWN-CB25 8.5GB 8X Inkjet-Printable Double Layer DVD+R - Cake Box of 25 Discs Review

Avoid this brand at all costs!!! Out of twenty five disk only 7 burned at all and of those only 4 will actually let you retrieve the data. Other brands like verbatim DL dvds worked just fine, so it is not an issue of hardware. It is an issue of this media being cheap and suffering from any type of quality control.

Ridata CFR4G-233X-LIG 233x Series 4GB MLC Compact Flash Memory Card Review

Issue # 1:
233x is the READ speed, as opposed to write speeds. I contacted the manufacturer and the WRITE speed is only 16MB/sec. 133X cards have 20MB/sec speed. As you can see, this Ridata card is performing below 133X speed as write speed is concerned. See the issue 2 below.

Issue #2:
You need to send this card to the manufacturer AT YOUR OWN shipping cost to get the firmware upgraded to get the problem fixed as stated at manufacturer's website, ww w. ritekusa . co m:

"Consumer Notice:
Ridata has recently released a firmware upgrade (H0722) for its Ridata 233X CF cards that appears to have resolved the issues with "continuous shot" mode in Digital SLR cameras (such as Nikon and Canon SLR DSCs, etc.)."

Ridata DVD+RW 4x 50-pack Spindle Review

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 all 25 discs. 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).
