I bought in Japan 10 pack spindle of acer cd-rs.They are made in Taiwan. They are gold and they are very cheap. 300 yens. About 3 Euros. I am worried about the quality. I burn 3 cds and they seems fine. Any Idea? Here it is the Atip: ATIP: 97m 22s 67f Disc Manufacturer: Acer Media Technology, Inc. Reflective layer: Dye (Short strategy; e.g. Phthalocyanine) Media type: CD-Recordable Recording Speeds: min. unknown - max. unknown nominal Capacity: 702.83MB (79m 59s 74f / LBA: 359849)
Many consider Acer a top notch manufacturer. On the other hand I made 1 out of 10 coaster with Acer (lower speed) and with my old drive Plex1210 coasters were VERY rare. http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/4546 http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/2084
