<< Anyone have any insight as to why these burn slower on a Plextor drive than other brands of media? I have a Plextor 24/10/40 and am looking for a hot deal on media for it. One of the recommended manufacturers is TY, so was planning to jump on this deal, but maybe I should reconsider?
TIA >>
Some of the discs Fuji is selling as 24x discs are actually rebadged 16x discs. Yeah they are still Taiyo's, but older Taiyo's. Many of the 24x writers I've tested have had problems recognizing that these discs can write at 24x and only like to write to them at 16x. Yeah, you might be able to choose 24x in Nero, but take a look at the writing times. If you're taking 5 minutes to write a CD, you're not writing at 24x.
I have noticed that Fuji is finally selling non-relabeled 24x disc packs too. These might be actual 24x Taiyo discs, but I have not picked any up to check.
