Review on πŸ“€ Maxell MAX639013 DVD+R Recordable Media, 16x, 4.70 GB, 50 Pack Spindle Silver by David Edwards

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Maxell's DVD manufacturer. consistency has become unstable and quality control is almost non-existent.

I didn't like the burden and hard work of having to format/prepare their DVD+R MaxData discs and encountering a large number of formatting errors that render the product unusable due to inherent flaws made, harmful character. inconsistency of their productions. The process is evidenced by numerous shaded/striped areas on or near the outside of the disc's recordable side, most of which are often formatted and recordable, while most discs have non-shaded/striped areas and are unformatted or pre-recorded. Other misleading evidence is the presence of scattered white and iridescent blurs that cannot be formatted or written, are not supported, and lead to multiple error messages. Of the last 150 DVD+Rs I've worked with, I've only found 33 usable discs and many long, frustrating, useless hours of testing faulty products to see how best to get them to work. The final, awful part of the process is returning faulty products, getting either a replacement for a product that has become unreliable, or a refund, and thinking about what to buy next. Maxell used to be the epitome of sound carriers. what happened to you

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad but...
