Summary: TDK DVD -R Blanks have a very high failure rate
Comment: I have used a whole range of DVD -R blanks, from brandless ones to the very high end. One of the worst is TDK. The failure rate is almost 50% and this is for my computer dvd burner and my DVD recorder. I use Nero Burning suite as well as Roxio and the results for TDK blanks are consistently bad. I have had very little failure with Maxell and Fuji. I am truely amazed that this product is being given 5 star ratings by some reviewers.

Summary: Will do in a pinch
Comment: These are not the quality I was expecting. I've had several "coasters" and have had to slow my burning down to 8x. Even at 8x I've had a few coasters in my two Sony DVD burners. I've used over a thousand TY brand and had maybe 10 coaster in that many discs. I'll stick with T Y brand.

Summary: I will buy more
Comment: My first try with these TDK blanks. I have used nearly 100 and not a single dud in the stack. Finally a blank that works everytime on my recorder!

Summary: works great for me--but make sure they'll work for YOU first...
Comment: TDK makes a very reliable blank DVD-R that can handle up to 4.7 GB of data. Moreover, these blank DVD-Rs are capable of recording data at speeds up to "16x." The video I record onto these lasts forever. I have used these as discs to record video both with and without audio.
The DVD-R discs are compact and easy to store. While the discs are still blank, store them in the circular case on the spindle that they came in. After your record video onto them, I would recommend storing them in slim jewel cases instead of paper sleeves. It's just better protection for your DVD-Rs that have information stored on them. Don't store these discs, used or blank, in rooms that become very hot; this causes damage to any brand of this type of disc and you could lose your recorded video over time.
There are three caveats that many other people note about any brand of this product: before you buy these make sure that your DVD burner drive can burn the TDK brand of DVD-R without any problems; otherwise you run the risk of getting way too many coasters at best in exchange for your money. Second, there's the "recording speed" issue. When you are burning the video onto the blank disc using computer software, don't be surprised if you see that the data is burning at a rate slower than "16x." This can happen if your burner doesn't have the capacity to burn faster, or it may be a quirk. I am not a professional so I cannot be certain of precisely what causes this phenomenon; but I assure you that the extra minute or two (tops) that you wait to get your DVD-R completed is worth the wait.
In addition, DON'T write on these using Sharpie ink pens. The ink can seep through the top coating of the DVD-R disc and slowly but surely compromise your data--ouch! If you need to label the discs, label its jewel case using a post-it note.
Overall, TDK blank DVD-R discs store video reliably over the years and I believe that if you make sure your burner can handle these they will be very useful to you. An extra minute to burn the data onto the blank disc is well worth it in the event that it doesn't actually burn at "16x" speed.
