eSkRo Posted April 20, 2009 Posted April 20, 2009 (edited) Ok, i've read on the subject on WIKIPEDIA but, does anyone here uses them instead of DVD+RW and DVD-RW? Cuz looks like the discs have a built-in error control and defect management system.... Which would make DVD-RAM better than DVD+RW and DVD-RW i guess..... Anyways, my drive doesn't support writing to DVD-RAM,,,, i didn't know that before purchasing.... What do you guys think about DVD-RAM in general? Edited April 20, 2009 by eSkRo
Cynthia Posted April 20, 2009 Posted April 20, 2009 Tried to find some discs in my town this weekend but they are tricky to find in computer shops, atleast in my town.
blutach Posted April 20, 2009 Posted April 20, 2009 It's not the worst thing in town but given that USB sticks are now 4Gb and more, they are pretty outdated. Regards
eSkRo Posted April 20, 2009 Author Posted April 20, 2009 think i made a mistake by purchasing a non dvd-ram writing capable burner?
blutach Posted April 20, 2009 Posted April 20, 2009 Dpends what you wanna use it for. Get a USB stick instead - they're faster and won't suffer the same degradation as a DVD RAM disc (and gee, those DVDRAMs are expensive discs). Regards
volvofl10 Posted April 20, 2009 Posted April 20, 2009 all that RAM discs are good for is if you have a RAM capable recorder for your TV( mainly Panasonic) . and then only any good if you transfer the data via a RAM capable drive onto your PC for editing. With RAM discs, your better off buying quality, like Pansonic, rather than any other non-descript brands. trust me. The decent ones last a long time, the non desript ones last about 3 months
