pootas Posted August 7, 2008 Author Share Posted August 7, 2008 have you tried writing at 4 or 6x ? I would love to but just used my last disk lol.....Do you think it would make a diff....I think I may have tried it before and still couldnt get disk to burn....Just seems weird it doesn't happen all the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornholio7 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 there are often problems with these discs and various drives, some like them some dont, the best ones to use are MKM 001 made in singapore and not the ones made in india Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cornholio7 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 just try getting some MKM 001 , you have MKM 003. i dont have a 5170 so i cant comment on that but the 111D had served me well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pootas Posted August 7, 2008 Author Share Posted August 7, 2008 How can I be sure the supplier is selling MKM 001....I'm in UK... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volvofl10 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 for MKM-001 use svp.co.uk, a mail order who are VERY reliable. Most of the Beta team in Europe use them . although out of stock , theres an option for them to notify you when they are in. MKM-001 verbs HERE LOOK CAREFULLY at the details of each kind of verbatim in the dual layer section as they are now selling ones made in India as well, and these havent been as good so far.
