Ritek G05

ritek g05s are probably not the cheapest,but you get the least problems.

i thought i was wise and bought 200 titanium printables ( CMC ) .the worst decision i have ever made.had to re-do half my trades.and my writer (pioneer 109 ) hated them,1 out of every 5 froze at 8% and wouldn't go any further.and my nec 2500 wouldn't even recognise them.

soz rant over

I voted for the Bulkpaq printables as I haven't had a bad burn after using a few tubs.
Currently using Datawrite 8x Hub Printables and yet to have a bad disc. They burn at 12x too.

Titaniums

Had to vote for one of them so made my choice the datawrite titaniums as people are always saying that their so good havent been burning for long and have used some of the others with disasterous effects, 20 rejects out of 25 on bulkpaq printables.

Noticed tuffdisc wernt up there, any reason? Just bought 100 on a wim and not had one single reject. Think you should have included them in this poll but then again I am a newcomer.

well at the risk of annoying everyone in this post (wicked smile) Twisted Evil and in return offering a pre speech appology to anyone that this does upset

i just wanna say:

i think the cmc/mcc dye is absoloutely crap the titanium discs is one of the worst ever made and how come datawrite/datasafe suddenly get the thumbs up in here when not so long back no one would touch a trade unless it was on go5 discs?????

i used to hate go5 discs but now i wont use anything else as no other discs even compares to it. and i agree with matey above when he says that go5 discs may not be the cheapest but they without doubt give you less problems. so there ya go you can all slate me now for upsetting ya lol

Verbatim---not Ritek-not Ridata-not Datawrite Titanium

I used to use Ridata silver tops G04's until the last tub of 50 caused data errors half way through.
Changed to Ritek G05's white tops which were fine until the last order which produced coasters from the start.
Conclusion: Ritek quality has gone and will not be buying anymore.
Tested Datawtite Titanium Greys but some of the discs have uneven surfaces which although have not produced errors, doesn't fill me with hope that their quality control is particularly good.
Tested some Verbatim 8x silver branded and they have been perfect. Quality of the disc is impressive and the speed test graph shows a perfectly smooth shape.

I have only ever used Ritek Discs - so obvioulsy thats what I will vote for. No doubt some of the other dsics are good - but after buying discs from this site I have found non other as reliable and readable in all machines as the Ritek dye.
