Questions & Answers
HTL refers to high-quality materials. The BDA (bluray disk association) has a rule that states that if the disks are LTH, the manufacturer must specify "LTH Type" on the package label (Verbatim seems to follow this rule, but I'm not sure if all manufacturers do). So, if it doesn't say LTH, it should be HTL in theory. The HTL is thought to be superior and more durable. It has been established that LTH is less dependable. Another way to tell, I believe (but am not certain), is: It's most likely HTL if you see the "AZO" logo on verbatim disks. AZO and LTH were always together in some charts I saw of different verbatim media. If you see "MABL," on the other hand, you're most likely looking at a better material combination. In comparison to organic dyes, MABL is an inorganic recording material that should last longer. So. The fact that these disks (verbatim 98397) are labeled "MABL" rather than "LTH" indicates that they should last a long time. I purchased a spindle with 50 discs from this company. However, I have yet to put them to use.
That is an excellent query. These BD- Only a Blu-ray writer can create R discs. Ray burner, and if created as a video disc, they'll play in most Blu-ray players. Players from the Rays. I haven't sent many of these out, but I haven't received any negative feedback. There was no BD- there was no BD- there was no BD- there was no BD- there wasn't any It's a R vs. BD R battle. Although there was a competitor, Blu-ray was the clear winner. Ray was up against HD DVDs, which were an entirely new technology. Blu-ray somehow manages to be both entertaining and educational. Ray came out on top quickly, and we avoided a third world war in the tech industry. A BD R, as far as I'm aware, does not exist. br>I believe these discs will be a success for you.
"Coasters" are discs that do not burn during the burning process. As a result, they've been ruined and can only be used as table coasters.
This isn't the case with these disks. Others will allow you to do so as well. They have white surfaces that are all the same color. This is not the case with these disks. You can use an indelible ink marker to write on them, but that's about it.

These are great for short-term storage and backup, but they're useless after that. I kept written discs in the spindle they came in, inside a house, out of the sun, and they didn't last five years. I recently attempted to read a disc labeled "July 2014," but it was unreadable. The write surface has a cool pattern and appears to have been spilled solvent on it; it does not appear to be the surface of a new or 2018 model.

I bought one of these spindles, as well as a single layer spindle, a few months ago. I had no issues with the single layer discs. However, when I tried to burn with these, I kept getting raised bubbles on the disk's underside. The first disk I burned was readable, but when I looked at it after having problems with the others, I noticed it had bubbles as well, though not as many as the others. The next three I burned in a row were completely useless, and every time it attempted to burn the 2nd layer, it produced bubbles (note that the inside of the disk is bubble-free). I'm attaching photos to show what I'm talking about, including a before/after shot to show they weren't there until after I tried to write the disc. br>br>I even tried picking a disc from the middle of the spindle to see if it was just the top ones that were defective, but I got the same result. I'm not sure if I got a bad batch or if these discs simply have compatibility issues with my drive, but I'm extremely dissatisfied, and especially annoyed because I only realized the discs were defective when it was far too late to return them. br>br>Recent changes: br>br> I decided to test again the next morning, because when I first burned, I let the drive choose the speed, assuming it would not exceed the maximum recommended. It was burning at 8x speed instead of 6x, which I had noticed. I forgot to specify the speed in the first test, but despite this, I got much better results, with only a few bubbles around the outer rim. The rest of the tests went off without a hitch. I burned at 4x and the disc was readable despite a few bubbles around the edges. Both the 6x and the 3x discs passed verification. br>br>Overall, I believe the initial poor results were caused by a combination of the program burning faster than the disc could handle, and possibly the drive warming up over time (as both DL discs that were the first burned of the day turned out OK ev). br>br>I then tried burning at 2x (actually specified 1x but it seemed to be running at 2x during the burn), and while this disc took forever to burn, the end result was pristine, no For the burns, I'm using an LG drive and xorriso, a linux command-line program.
For data security, I've always bought/used Verbatim CD/DVD/BD media, but this model, BD-R, is a first. R 50GB 6x media is clearly a dud. (2019. 28 Verbatim finally sent 2x10 pack replacement media for the failed media I tried burning at 4-minute intervals. 6x's. I've increased the star rating to four. )br>br>The error I'm getting is most likely a well-known 4-character error. This media has a 6x write speed defect, which was probably discovered when switching to the second layer or after writing 25GB of data. (For more information, see #5. ) )br>br>1) In my experience, this isn't 6x media. With an LG WH16NS60, I've only recently achieved a good write on two pieces of this media at 1x speed. br>br>2) After burning through 20-year-old LG WH16NS60 drives, I had no choice but to purchase a new LG WH16NS60 drive. In both Linux and Windows, there are 25 bad media files at 6x speeds. Microsoft Windows 10 is the latest version of the operating system (Writing speed in Windows 10 appears to be set to 6x by default. ) ) I was probably fine with my slightly older LG WH14NS40, and all I needed to do was double-check. There was dust on the lens, so I was able to clean it off. br>br>3) Used their web form to send an email to Verbatim technical support. Strangely enough, I never received a carbon copy (CC) of the digital support request for this issue via email. Due to the Verbatim employee's poor English language speaking skills, I had a difficult time explaining the problem when I called their technical support. After sending the email on Friday evening or Saturday midday, it is now midday Wednesday and there has been no response. (I'm tempted to buy the cheaper 50GB media to avoid wasting time and money because I don't have a CC via email like most other companies do. )br>br>4) I'm tempted to buy the cheaper 50GB media to avoid wasting time and money. I can't imagine putting my money on the pricey M- technology based on discs WRITE@LBA=b87780h failed with SK=5h/ASC=21h/ACQ=04h]: WRITE@LBA=b87780h failed with SK=5h/ASC=21h/ACQ=04h]: WRITE@LBA=b87780h failed with SK=5h/ASC=21h/ACQ=04h]: WRITE@LBA=b87780h failed with SK=5 Invalid argument" appears to occur after 25GB of data has been written, and is most likely during the switch to the second layer. This error code is most likely associated with writing speed and switching to the second layer. Bottom line: it's probably best to keep buying/using. br>br>(I just checked my Spam/XXX mailbox and there have been no responses from Verbatim. ) 2019 (br>br>2019 (br>br>2019 (br>br>2019 (br>br 28: Restored the review to how it was in the first paragraph. For the failed media I tried writing at the specified 4-minute interval, I received 2x10 pack media of the same make/model. 6 times the speed of writing I'm now able to write at 2x or even 4x speed with good results.
