TDK DVD-R 8x

The last of the TDK discs included into this review is actually manufactured by TDK.

Alas, the disc failed the test. The maximums of errors exceed the limits imposed by the standards. Besides that, you can see certain non-uniformity in the distribution of the errors along the surface of the blank. So, here’s our verdict: this disc lacks quality to be a suitable medium for you. At least, you shouldn’t burn it with the Lite-On drive we used in our tests.

Verbatim DVD+RW 4x

According to DVD Identifier, the real manufacturer of this Verbatim DVD+RW disc is Mitsubishi Kagaku Media. That’s another way of saying Verbatim, because Verbatim is a daughter company of Mitsubishi’s.

You can see that the peaks of PI failures slightly exceed the acceptable range – five or six (the two test programs differ in their opinions) instead of the allowable four. But it’s all right with errors of the other type – their maximums are far below the required level. We suppose the users won’t have any troubles with this disc.
