Writes at 8x as stated, and is very reliable, though results vary substantially depending on what writer is used. NEC ND2500 will write perfect disks at 8x, but BenQ1620 (B7T9) writes it better at 4x.

When i burnt these disks at 8x I had a coaster every time. The successful disks have always relevant errors.
Reducing the speed to 4x no burning errors.
In my modest opinion, these disks are not like Ritek!

Initially had problems burning with 1.15 firmware. The disc would burn ok, but suffered from errors on verifying, and when running nero dvd speed test the resulting graph was all over the place. Flashed to 1.18 firmware, and they now verify fine, and the resulting discs show a nice smooth curve in nero dvd speed test. Tried in a few players, and they all play fine. A nice disc at a nice price.

These disc arrived a day later than expected due to a mix up with the carriers so most of the enthusiasts amongst you have already had time to buy and try a few. The discs are in cake boxes of 25 sealed with a tight strong shrink wrap. I had difficulty in removing this wrap as there was no easy tear strip and the wrapping being strong and tight. I had to use a knife to cut it off.
Once opened the top label that was the shape of a disc remained in the lid and there was the usual clear protective disc on top of the discs. There was no foam pad on top but the discs fitted the tub like a glove and it was not needed. The descriptive wrapper around the side of the discs was loosely fitted and not sealed into a circle as with previous wrappers. This made it much easier to remove and discard.
The discs are a light grey in colour with the standard Datawrite inscriptions - with the one noticeable difference - "8x DVD-R". Although this was in small print and I feel it could have been made to stand out more.
The discs have the FUJIFILM03 leadin code and this is the first time I believe that Datawrite have use this manufacturer.
I have done very little testing on Fuji media but I have always been a fan of their film and video recording tape. The dye is a dark colour with a purple tinge similar to the Ritek that we love but a darker colour.
I checked the disc for burning speed in my LITEON SOHW-832S and it came up as 8x speed. My first test disc took just over 27 minutes AT 2 speed and then just over 7.5 minutes at 8 speed for a full DVD and on examination of the burn it was even and I could clearly see the 6x – 8x changeover point. Playback in my Mustek was smooth with positive chapter skipping and no freezing. I checked playback in several of my other players with the same results.

Advertised by reputable online supplier as "a cheaper alternative to the Ritek dyes", I bought expecting to be a little disappointed as I tend to use Ritek due to other discs being largely incompatible with my ageing playback hardware. However, these discs perform well - write at 8x as specified, low error rate, excellent playback in a difficult-to-cater-for standalone DVD player, and a resilient, smooth top that looks well manufactured. So far I am very pleased with these discs.

Have always been a huge fan of Grey Datawrite, and theese discs do not dissappoint me. Even my old 2x grey datawrite still work flawlessly today, wich can not be said about many of my orange bulkpaq, red datawrite etc. Half a year old, and I have to be happy to read theese discs 100% without data errors. I tried burning theese 8x discs with my old firmware 1,13 at first, but they only wrote in 4x, so I checked for new firmware, and surprisingly enough, it had just been released, and the 1,15 firmware works as a charm writing theese discs in 8x, wich practically means burning a complete dvd-r in approx 8minutes - "smoookin'"

Very poor. So far 3 coasters out of 3 burns on my new Pioneer 107D using firmware 1.13. The Burn goes ahead OK, but once finished, nothing shows up on the disc in Windows Explorer, and all Nero Info Tool says there is 0MB used, even though you can see the burn extents quite clearly on the disc.
I'm not gonna waste anymore of these. Avoid these discs with this burner.
