    I have heard several reports over the past week about some brands of media actually coming apart in drives. A recordable disk is two plastic plates "bonded" together, the two plates should NEVER come apart and it is a serious safetly issue if they do. If the plates seperate whilst they are in the drive and the user opens the drive door it has been known for the plates to shatter and send sharp shards of plastic out of the drive drawer. This is a serious safety risk and could literally cause you to lose an eye.

    If you ever experience a situation where the two plates of the disk physically come apart, stop using that media immediately and take it back to the shop you brought it from. If they refuse to refund you your money a quick mention of Health and Safety should do the trick, if they still refuse, contact your local council's health and safety office.

  2. How about naming the brands not just posting such a vague report..
