hi can anyone tell me what type and brand of blank dvds do they use to burn on to a back up and play? i guess they need to be the larger sized dvds? because most xbox games are roughly 6gb. thanks for your help.
http://www.digitalfaq.com/media/dvdmedia.htm The following list is in preference order. The best discs are near the top of the list. The discs at the bottom of the list are suitable only for a landfill. Almost flawless burns with 95-100% reliable results: PVC = Pioneer = (-R)(-RW) MXLRG01, MXLRG02 = Maxell = (-R) ... be aware of unbranded fakes MCC = Mitsubishi Chemicals = (-R)<-----------------VERBATIM MY CHOICE #1 TDKG02 = TDK Corp = (-R) ... be aware of unbranded fakes TAIYOYUDEN or YUDEN = Taiyo Yuden = (-R)<--------------FUJIFILM (made in japan) MY CHOICE #2 Decent discs, though not perfect, about 85-95% success rate: RICOHJPN = Ritek or Ricoh = (+R) SONYD04 = Sony = (-R) ... be aware of unbranded fakes PRODISC = Prodisc Media = (+RW) INFODISC = Infodisc Media = (+RW) RITEKG04 = Ritek = (-R) RITEKG03 = Ritek = (-R) OPTODISC = Optodisc = (-R) Why Verbatim ? Because they are the only company other than Kodak, (With there expensive Gold dye media). Too offer the following statement of archival life. When i Burn something it means I want to keep it, And my First burned Verb's year's ago , still work superb with low PI errors, to this day. Good Luck. Image below.
