8x or 4x?

[mjdavila]

8x or 4x?

I believe it's 4x... I just picked up the last 100 pack for 34.99 at best buy tonight.. it was hidden by the cordless phones ;)

[AndyKong]

yes. those are 4Xs

[ryan123]

comes with case right?

[jameslinux]

the +R's are 4X but the -R are 8x. The label on the packaging for the -R is 4X but when you look at the disc it says 8X, so I would believe what's written on the disc than the packaging label.

FS has 8x +-R BenQ 50pk for $18.99 ... I missed the 200pk, but this isn't bad. I bought a 100pk before.. no problems on my LG drive.

Can anyone post the media codes for both the +R and -R's? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for posting the media codes, folks. This media (the 8x -R's) seems to be decent according to the following reviews from VideoHelp.com (http://www.videohelp.com/dvdmedia.php?selectmedia=2240#comments). They seem to be MIT's.

[Vinas]

Yup, spindle says Made in Taiwan.

also, burnt fine @ 8x w/ my Liteon 832S (my -R spindles & discs all say 8x btw).

did a KPROBE on the burnt disc, got decent results, esp for an 8x burn.

[Curiosity]

These are great.

Picked up 2 in the USA at COSTCO on "BLACK FRIDAY" except they were $14.99 US$
