10 TDK Blu Ray Discs 50 GB BD-R DL 4X Speed High Grade Bluray Dual Layer Spindle

The discs are fine. They work as advertised without any problems. My only gripe, but this applies to ALL Blu-Ray discs and especially the DL (dual layer) is that they're expensive ... about US$4 each. I hope this goes down soon, but I expect that with the demise of optical media in general, I think this is unlikely. Too bad. But if you need dual layer Blu-Ray DVDs, these work very well.

First of all, my Buffalo BD-RE external recorder, which is in fact the Hitachi-LG BH12NS30 drive in the Buffalo USB 3.0 external box, denied to write on these with the Toast 11 Pro (HD/BD plugin bought and installed) thrice, and i began to search for the reason, as i haven't faced such a behavior before (actually because i haven't ever bought faked disks, though). First i looked at the media info in Toast (see my custom images in the gallery) and found these were far not TDK disks, but some Microboards Tech branded (actually made by other, cheaper manufacturer, which i'll expand further). Then i searched thru the disk pressed label (also in the gallery), saying it's model is CMD1BR6-PA4 (the last three PA4 are about print series), and i've found the media was actually made by CMC Magnetics, which is known as a low-end to mid manufacturer in terms of media quality. They actually do some OEM amounts for the major branded companies, like TDK, Verbatim and etc., but their TDK production is based in China (not in Japan), and i doubt TDK has ordered these from CMC Magnetics. I'm not sure if they are producing some BD-R(E) media for TDK, but the last prove of these are some fake ones "TDK" is the obviously misalignment between white coating and stamped circles (seen on my pics). According to the seller's description, these are "Original Product packed in spindle cake case", which is proved by the next line, claiming "TDK Genuine MID code", but that is an outrageous lie. So, i believe it's not about any seller's mistake, but counterfeit. By the way, the seller has responded to previous one star feedback in a fairly aggressive manner, which is neither good business and customer care practice nor a prove of their honesty.

This item is almost OK Away they rights to mess me up I thought I was buying something else but I was blind

I'm a little confused. When I try to record a 40GB movie on this disk, the software tells me that the disk isn't acceptable. I still haven't figured out why. When I try a 50GB BD-RE, it works fine.

This is a great value for what you get. I had one coaster, but that might have been because of my burner. Also, one disc finished burning fine, but 3/4 of the way into the film the video started skipping. I'm guessing that's probably the disc. Otherwise, the rest worked fine. It also arrived quite quickly, considering it was shipped from Japan. Overall I would recommend this, particularly if you want to ship it to Canada, since it comes out cheaper than getting it shipped from the US.

I have burnt over 60 of these discs and all have been a good copy... Not a bad disc in any of them.. Also good for my 3D Movies... I have used them in 3 burners and all worked the first time...

I was very excited to get these discs in the mail. It said "low error rate" in the description, however that is not the case. I use the first disc out of the spindle and it failed using dvdfab at 2x..... I thought maybe it was a fluke, nope. The second disc failed immediately after putting it in. Of course it burned the smallest little ring which made the disc unusable. I am starting to think that all of the 50gb bdr-dls are just junk. I have yet to come across any that will burn.... Very disapointed in this product considering it is TDK.

I don't know about all these negative reviews. This is the third time I am ordering these disks. Never had a bad burn because of them. And The second time I ordered I got them much faster than they predicted. I'd 5 star them but I think ALL disks are over priced.
