RCA DVD Media and JVC Media

[NamDekan]

my local Big Lots has some RCA DVD-R's in and i got a pack of 6 (3 RW and 3 R) and ran the dvd identifier and they are RitekG03..

the JVC as far as I know are 8X..

i was wondering if anybody had used either of these before and what kind of results did you get


also the prices are good..the 6pack i got was 2.34 and they got 3 packs for 1.17

the JVC is a 30 pack that is 11.99

Head over to Staples as quick as you can. They have 30 packs of Fuji for $9.94. The ones I got are TY02. Comes to about 33 cents a disk. Sale ends today (Saturday).

Make sure the package says MADE IN JAPAN ... not all do. It will be near the UPC code.

The packages that say MADE IN JAPAN are the A+ Taiyo Yuden DVD Discs be it -R or +R

at my office depot they have little stickers near the barcode, and on the stickers it says "made in taiwan", but under the sticker, on the label near the upc it says "made in japan".. there seems to be something fishy going on here.

oh, by the way. i bought a 3 pack of RCA dvd-r media from a big lots (trashy version of wal-mart), for $1.17.. not a bad price.. it was ricoh japan media too.. came in full jewel cases.. i might go buy out their stock (which is maybe 12 packs).

What media id are the JVC?

[Gen-An]

Depends. I know the 5 pack of 8x DVD-Rs in jewel cases that say "Made in Japan" are TYG02. As for the spindles, who knows. Those things are made in like Malaysia or someplace.

they say made in Malaysia on them..
i figured they probably werent the greatest as it was the first time i ever seen JVC media

[itsjustme]

i bought a 30 pack of the JVC from BIG LOTS for 12.99.

And you know what i got out of them? 30 freakin' coasters. I wasted 2 days doing back ups with them, then i went to play them and every single back up made on the JVC did not load right. They skipped, froze and all kinds of garbage.


STAY AWAY FROM JVC DVDS.

Well, stay away from the JVC DVD-Rs not made in Japan.
