I received the Orange Top's...so I assume Riteks. The Silver tops have been reported to be Lead Data (LeadData01). From what I have read at DVDRHelp....both are quite good. :)

There's no reason why there would be a limit.


Just went to the same Long Beach location and picked up 2. :) I just bought the same ritek silver tops from newegg for 59.99 a couple weeks ago. Hopefully everyone will be dropping prices especially since this sale is good until the end of the year. Didnt want to stock up on too many and have them drop even lower. ;)

For those of you in Seattle, I went to the one in Federal Way and bought two! No questions asked, they had ~15 more or so... Orange colored with black writing... The guy who worked there also verified that these worked great for him so far...

BTW, I'm running a Sony DRU510A.

Using latest Herrie 1.08 with 1300a. Still having issues. I think it's a compilation problem on my part since all the ones I've created did not show a volume name when checked with dvdinfopro.

Received shipment just now via fedex. Confirmed orange top Riteks.

EDIT>> Burning these only at 2x max (4x gives power calibration error) with NEC 1300a v1.08 official firmware and Nero 6. Simple attempt at backing up regular files ( DVD(ISO) ).

What gives ?

Im currently using 1.08v2 from Herrie and 4x n/p.. get the fw from his site and do a simulation with nero to see if it completes 100% prior to the actual burning process :p
