Imation DVD-R 8x

This DVD-R blank turned out to be a product of Fuji Film.

The diagrams are self-explanatory: we see that the peaks of PI errors and failures are many times above the norm. Note that the quality is quite acceptable in the middle of the disc, but degenerates dramatically at the beginning and end. Considering that, this disc won’t suit you if you need guaranteed burn quality.

Intenso DVD+R 4x

The disc selling under the Intenso brand is manufactured by Moser Baer India Ltd. You may have noted the non-standard packaging of this product: there’s a special lever for ejecting the disc through a side of the plastic slim box. With this design, the disc won’t slip out and get damaged even if you let the box drop down. The only drawback of this solution is that dust may come into the box through the constantly open slit.

The two screenshots testify to the high quality of the disc. The results in PI errors are excellent; the maximum of PI failures is low enough, too. There’s only one spike of PI failures which coincides with the acceptable limit.

So, we’ve got another quality disc here, which is unlikely to lose your recorded data.
