Review on ๐Ÿ“€ 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 "AZOโ€ 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
