Well they are TTH02 disc's - so they are reportedly crappy.

 

What you have however found is that a test of blank media shows every block bad - I get the same results as you when I test my Blank Verbatim's.

your firmware looks a bit old , try updating to BSOS here http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=1934 it may help, although those discs are CMC <cough>

According to digitalfaq, TTH02s are apparently "legal" fakes made by Mitsui, with permission by TDK to use the code. However the media is quite poor, not true TDK media.

Cheers for the reply guys looks like i have made a boo boo lol

 

they are 16 speed discs aswell i thought they would have been higher quality than usual ones but doesn't look much like it lol

 

i did indeed test the disc it came up bad when it was blank and good when it was full lol but thanks for the advice guys
