| I always buy ink jet printable DVD+X (by habit) online. Ridata's too and have NOT had a problem. The one time I try DVD-R Verbatims ink-jet printables the burner didn't recognize the media. And, of course, I'm stuck with a spool of them- but they DO burn on my gf's burner (TSST corp DVD+-RW TS-H653B Comments posted by nxtkitt from United States, April 19, 2009.

| I have over a thousand burns both plus and minus on this burner with no problems on plus media up to 16x as long as i burn at 8x. the first trouble with minus media started when i tried to use 16x minus, the burner will not recognize it. I also tried 1 to 16x and it still didn't recognize it. it works fine as long as i use 8x minus. if memorex dosn't update the firmware later than bwse, lets hope they keep making 8x minus media. i use dvd shrink, dvd decrypter, fab decrypter and nero,I would recomend this burner to anyone.

| Not sure if this one is related to this model but just got hold of one internal model from Office Depot this weekend. It says 16x16 (part number: Part Number: 32023292), it has DL-R and DL+R capability. Selling at $59.95 plus $20m mail in rebate. After installation, in XP, device manager says Memorex 16X-DDL-ILO Wondering if anybody knows what chipset it uses? Comments posted by D9 Fan from United States, January 17, 2006.

| I burned about 50 successful DVD's (Verbatim 8x DVD+r). The next batch of 100 Verbatim discs (looked identical to the last batch) have problems. After the recording process is completed (did 10 the same way as the last 50 using CopytoDVD v3.0.45) none of the discs will play in my laptop as they did with the prior 50. They are, however, recognized by my DVD recorders. I went back to my newly repaired Sony DRU-530a (the lost one nver worked right before I sent it in for repair) using the same media and they play flawlessly. I guess Verbatim changed the formulation on the 8x discs & the Memorex hasn't updated the firmware. Memorex has only updated the firmware once (8/30/04)to my knowledge since it's roll-out. We're now almost in March of 2005, 6 months after this last update. I would not recommend this drive since I am very disappointed about it's irratic results.

| Compatability - So far I have burned... Sony (SONY08D1) -R 8x Memorex +R 16x Memorex -R 8X Sonic DVD-R 4.7GB 1X-4X (AN31) All of these have worked flawlessly. The downside was that it was the 2nd Memorex Drive that works flawlessly. I had to return the 1st one! The first one didn't do anything right other than play existing DVD's. I wanted to post a higher mark, but I actually should post a lower rating based on my first experience. Once I got a decent one, it has worked very good.

| I've had my drive for a month now and have had no problems at all. Win XP os, nero 6, p4, Asus mb. I've made no coasters (yet)and am liking this drive almost as much as my old Plextor that died 3 months ago. I've only tried Memorex dvd+r media but my Maxell cd-rw and generic cd-r media work just fine as well. Comments posted by max from United States, February 05, 2005. Rated this writer 7 of 10. |

| Burner worked great the first 50 copies I made, all with the same media types(Kypermedia and Memorex). I tried to switch to Maxell 8x DVD +R. I made 3 copies and all were unplayable. None of my three DVD players recognized the discs. I then tried Philips brand DVD's. I made 4 copies of these. All had the same results. None were playable by any DVD player. They all went through the read and write process "succesfully" on my computer, but were useless when played. This burner is a huge disappointment and is even more useless than the cheap one I replaced it with. It seems I am limited to only 2 types of media. I am afraid to try others as I don't want to waste an entire package. I would not recomment this burner to anyone. Comments posted by Andrew from United States, January 07, 2005.

| bought at Bestbuy for $109 (open box)--I installed w/little problems, and everything worked until I installed Nero that came w/drive. After getting 'BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH' problems, I uninstalled. Seemed to work fine after that. Not sure about this one, since Nero is the reason for purchasing this thing in the first place--now I have to figure out what's wrong.

| After intensive research, i decided to buy this drive based upon it being a top ten dvd burner listed in pc world. I got it from best buy for $119.99 with $20 rebate. Took it home, installed it and burned a bunch of coasters. None of my generic dvd-r's burned correctly. I tried various speeds, 2x 2.4x 8x, nothing. It was only after i used my good branded stuff that anything was possible. Also, there was alot of excessive noise. It was like my tower was gonna helicopter out of my office. I took it back and got a plextor 716a. I had no problems with it. burned everything and no coasters yet. and even better, it's really quiet...

| A FWIW report: I have had this drive for about a week and had been very pleased. This morning Nero 6 failed to complete a CD burn. Now this drive fails to recognize ANY CD -- blank or burned or commercially pressed. Tried flashing firmware. Succeeded but no joy with CDs. It is going back for exchange.

| This drive is great. Installed with no problems and was very happy to see the increase in 16X speed. The price was good considering you get Nero 6 with it. Highly reccomend it. Comments posted by Pat from United States, December 01, 2004. Rated this writer 10 of 10. |

| advantages: Nero Suite Software included, dual format disadvantages: lack of printed manual for software This is a nice drive. I just plugged it in and went. The Nero suite is nice. There is no printed manual for the software but it's not that hard to figure out. Just play with a test piece of video to get a feel for things.
