John Miller added: > I bought a spindle and had about a 50% success rate with them. What speed are you burning at? I've got the PNY's at home and burned at 4x I have yet to burn a coaster. I haven't tried fitting 700 MB on yet, so I maybe it has problems I haven't encountered yet. The flaky reflective stuff is the reason I don't store anything important on them. I got what I paid for... a disposable CDR. They work great for burning linux ISOs and stuff for short term use. Generally I don't like to keep ISOs around for two long because I'd rather have a disc with the latest packages and patches so I don't have to dig after installing. The discs I really like (and I can't always find) are the paper-covered discs.. I feel MUCH safer storing stuff on them because the reflective stuff won't chip off, you have to intentionally peel the sticker off. -Brian
