Type of review

I used to swear by HP. I still use their DVD 4.5 discs and they work great. However, these are terrible. I average 1 slice for every 7 coasters. I don't know if they've changed who releases their CDs, but now they're just the worst. Also, the ones that burned properly had bleeding issues when I tapped them. Printer passed diagnostics, everything works. The coating couldn't render a single straight line in the image without the colors flowing into each other. Just awful!

Pros
  • Each spindle contains 50 pieces 8.5 gigabyte double layer 8x DVD+R white inkjet printable discs
Cons
  • Doubtful

Totally useless to me

Absolutely useless for me. I have an internal HP DVD-RAM UJ8B1 drive and an external Samsung SE-506BB BluRay/DVD/CD writer. I tested with ImgBurn and Nero SpeedDisk at all available speeds. Each disc was a stand. In the Samsung drive, the disks ignited, but at the very end, when closing the disk, an error appeared with a power calibration error. HP's internal drive wrote to disks, but scanning the resulting disk showed a large number of bad and bad sectors. The same drives can burn blank TDKโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Compatible with most leading inkjet printers and DVD+R DL drives. Ideal for duplicating data carriers
Cons
  • Tape

Many write errors reported

When attempting to backup a disc using cloneDVD software, the first disc played for the first 5 minutes before the video froze and tried been, rewind forward, skip to the next scene, etc. will not unlock the video. The next 4 attempts to backup the drive resulted in the error "A write error has occurred, probably caused by bad media. Details Burn DVD 10.11W2. So 5 disks are wasted and not a single backup was made successfully with the software complaining about the disks used. I don't have this

Pros
  • Stores 8.5 gigabytes of data or up to 240 minutes of TV and video
Cons
  • Weight

Excellent Quality: Blank

I was very pleased to see that the surface coating on the discs evenly covered the entire disc. The surface is white with no discoloration or bleeding from the opposite side, making the surface very suitable for labeling. I don't know why these blanks were sold so cheaply other than the pink labels on the spindle. If I had seen these blanks in person on the shelf, I probably would have overlooked them because of the pink label. They may be left over from Breast Cancer Awareness Month (Octoberโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Electronics

Many spelling errors reported

When attempting to backup a disc using the CloneDVD software, the first disc played for the first 5 minutes before the video froze and then when trying to fast forward it jumped to the next scene etc., did not work Unblock the video. The next 4 attempts to save the disc resulted in the error "Write error occurred, probably caused by faulty media. Details Burning DVD 10.11W2". So 5 disks are wasted and not a single backup was made successfully with the software complaining about the disks usedโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Blank media
Cons
  • High price

I used to use them with no problems but last time I bought 2 packs of 50 and it seems that more than half of the discs in each pack have manufacturing defects on the recording surface, the one prevent proper recording - when recording errors are not reported, but freeze during playback and some sections of the disc are skipped during recording. Used the same images to burn to a different brand disc when they failed - they worked fine. These discs have defects near the outer edge of the discsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Accessories and consumables
Cons
