    Gents (and ladies) I have my very first BD-RE DL 50GB and am having trouble finding consistent information on the proper way to initially format it. It is a TDK inkjet printable 1-2X.

    I have a Windows 7 PC and use ImgBurn for most of my burning, but as crazy as this sounds, I have never used rewritable media before. Never. Burned plenty of DVD-R's of course. But that's not the same thing.


    I'm reading ImgBurn can screw initial formatting up...???


    Can anyone assist me or point me to a guide? I would like to do this right and not create a coaster.


    Thanks!

    No.

    Prior to first use it should be formatted.
    Look at the guides at Imgburn site for explanation of settings.

    You can always reformat
