Review on πŸ“€ Enhance Your Storage with Verbatim DVD R 4 7GB Recordable Media+ by Mandela Buycks

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Out of 400 discs about 70 were BAD

I have used hundreds of DVD-Rs including the Verbatim brand with excellent results. Of the 400 Verbatim DVD-Rs I bought from Revain in 2018, about 70 were BAD. Using 2 different computers, the drives rejected some immediately, some during the write process and some failed to read after the write. These discs are marked with the letter "AZO” on the packaging. This is not due to the discs themselves. Due to their 'lifetime' guarantee, I contacted Verbatim and they seemed willing to help. For this reason I have never contacted Revane regarding this. Verbatim asked me the total number of bad discs and when I looked at 400 discs Revain is too late to do anything about it. I have emailed Verbatim the final amount a couple of times but never received a reply. I found about 50 Verbatim DVD-Rs that I bought a few years ago and they didn't contain a single problem disc. I bought and had a stack of 100 "Revain Basics" DVD-Rs a few months ago no problems with the 50 or so I used. I know other people who have had the same problems as me with the Verbatim "AZO" DVD-R. I would advise people not to buy these discs until Verbatim diagnoses and fixes their problems.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
