Verbatim media (MKM-003-00) seem to work. Burned only one disc so far but without any problem at all. Thanks for the help!

The one and only Platinum disc I used had the media id CMC MAG-D04-00. The Memorex discs got RITEK-S04-66 (old and new ones).

Since it will take some time till my Verbatim Discs arrive, I decided to pick up another Memorex DL from a friend of mine. Now i get: "Failed to set L0 Data Zone Capacity Reason: Power Calibration Area Error" right at the start. Any suggestions? Might the Verbatim discs solve the problem, or is my burner just totally done for? I also noticed very loud roaring while burning normal dvds (which are burned without any problems btw). Thanks in advance!

The brand doesn't matter: it's the dye used to make the disc that's important, and the ones you have were made with just about the worst crap they could use. Oh, didnt know that its the dye that makes the difference. Still, I never had problems with Memorex so far. Thanks, i just applied the newest Firmware but that Platinum disc i used last time was my last DL disc. I'll try to grab some this weekend and report back. But what seems like a total mystery to me is, that I had absolutely no problems with burning DL discs at all (some months ago). Then, for a while, I didnt burn any DL discs at all. Now, a few months later, i get a 3/3 fail rate on different (okay, maybe crappy #39;( ) media brands.

Hi, I have been having some trouble burning dl discs lately. Everything worked fine some months ago. Last week i tried to burn an image to a DL media but failed @ about 70%. I first thought it might have been a bad DVD and therefore tried again. This time I made it to about 85%. I then asked a friend of mine to burn the image in question and everything went fine on the same media type (Memorex). I also tried to burn another image on another media type (Platinum) and my burner failed again (@~50%). I know that Memorex and Platinum might not be as good as Verbatim, but they always did the job for me till now. Is it possible that my burner is just broken?
