Soon to burn home made 50gb Blu-Rays


BlizzardUK

Recommended Posts

Back in the dual layer DVD days I found using Verbatims was the only way to ensure a working disc. Is there any such issues with 50gb Blu-Ray media ? I just bought some TY ones, not got them yet. I wondered if the situation was the same at the 50% mark of some media working and some not when it moves to the next layer ?

 

Does IMGBurn handle 50gb blu-rays fine ? As I will be using it all the time to burn any ISO's I create. The discs will be home made via Nero Vision 11, I am unsure if this makes any difference.

 

Hopefully I haven't been conned, but this is the spindle I am told I am getting and that they are TY brand, although no mention of this on spindle photo.

There are some BD media scans in the 'Drives' section (only for Blu-ray drives obviously!). Have a look and see how various ones performed.

 

I didn't test many DL discs... and certainly not any Taiyo Yuden ones. The cdfreaks/MyCE forums might have a few though.

If it is any help I can do some stability tests when I get them, I have also ordered a RE 50gb disc along with them, and the new Pioneer 206 BD drive. But I am presuming IMGBurn does have the facility to burn some 50GB discs ? Just so I know, thanks.

 

By the way, while I am here, I am trying to erase a Sony BD-RE 25gb disc, on my LG GGW-H20L. I keep getting the below errors at the same point (tried a couple of times, virtually an identical time it fails)........
