Taiyo Yuden

Okay, So i've finally decided to cave and buy some taiyo yuden. I have found a great website with decent prices and they give the media id for all their discs. The only questions I have now is... does it matter if I get dvd+r or dvd-r? the -r are less expensive so i like that factor.

Depends on what are you plan to archive on them.

 

For DVD Video use DVD-R for more compatibility with cheap or older DVD players and a little more space than DVD+R

 

For Data use DVD+R for a better defect management

oh one more question actually.... tyg02 is the 8x right? That means i can burn as quickly? is there much differnce between those and the tyg03 16x other than the speed they can burn at?

 

Reason i'm asking is i burn on two different burners. one newer than the other. Currently i have tdk 16x discs that i burn at 8x on the newer one and 2.4x on the old one. if i burn any faster than that with the old one it starts skipping (not sure if it's the burner or just the disc)

 

Here's my info for my two burners:

 

Old one:
