Memorex 4x 700 MB/80-Minute CD-RW Discs (25-Pack Spindle)The product arrived in a very timely manner and was in perfect condition when I opened the box. Very fast and efficient service.
Every single one of the discs was corrupt. These should be taken off the market. Unreal.
I have used Philips CD-RWs, they work pretty fine numerous writes and erases later.I bought these from J&R computers, I dont know How I will return these to them now, probably at my own expense. The question is not of money, I spent 3 full days in trying to figure out what's wrong.I don't know how Amazon still displays this when somebody does a search. Do Not buy this brand. Nobody should sell this product.
Stay away from these. Don't cut them and lose them into the blackhole that is Memorex.They are everywhere but just because they're everywhere and the cheapest out there, and have been around a fairly long time doesn't mean they work. Same thing. Yes, you can imagine my fustration that only 5 discs had info. I've saved files on over 100 of these. Please Memorex, how can you call these Cd-RWs.
Please, stay away from these. It'll say the disc is corrupt or cannot be read at all. ARg. You have better chance of saving your stuff hand writing it and taking months to file it than getting these to read anything.
And please check your discs immediately after writing. Don't wait till months to find out that your data isn't there.If you have to get these, copy your data somewhere else and write. If I could rate it a zero, I'd rate it a -10. And I've tried this on 3 computers.
Everything seems fine until I try to retreive something out of them or remove a file. Then good luck trying to open it back up. Wish I read all these reviews.
Subsequent trials run with the "Verify Written Data" checkbox checked revealed that every other sector or so was unreadable after burning. They don't fly very well and they break relatively easily, but this is the best value I can find for 25 frisbees in one place.A lot of people are disappointed because they expect to be able to use these discs as rewritable CD media. Then it took 5 minutes to open a simple HTML document on the burned disc. Cheer up people: THEY ARE GREAT FUN. It burned fine. So grab your spindle, go outside, and start chucking these things at your neighbor's annoying dog. It's like writing with a white crayon, except this is white paper.
This persisted on several OTHER computers with different CD burner drives and even different software.I finally realized what great frisbees these things are. At less than a dollar per frisbee, this is the best price I can find for frisbees. IT WORKED. The problem with that is, they don't work very well for that either. I, too, tested this for myself.Using Nero Burning ROM, I tried many times to burn different kinds of data onto several of the discs -=AT 4X=-, just like you're supposed to. =D
