Amazon.com Product Description
Need a good way to record video, archive MP3 footage, or backup data files? Turn to Ritek's DVD+R DL discs, which offer up to 8.5 GB of storage capacity-- enough for eight hours of DVD-quality video, 16 hours of VHS-quality video, or more than 120 hours of MP3 audio. The discs are compatible with a wide range of DVD video players, game consoles, computer DVD-ROM drives, and DVD burners. More significantly, the disc capacity is almost double that of conventional DVD+R discs thanks to the double- layer technology, which lets you read or record twice as much information without flipping the disc. And people who frequently create their own video projects will love the discs' inkjet-printable white surface. To add your own custom graphics to the disc, simply slide the disc into a CD/DVD-compatible inkjet printer. The resulting resolution will be crisp and colorful, making it ideal for self-produced films, music videos, and multimedia presentations. Ridata's DVD+R DL discs, which record at 8x speed using a high-quality organic dye, are backed by a one-year warranty. What's in the Box
25 discs, cake box.

 Will not work with Dymo Disc Printer February 5, 2008
Neal Schultz (Orange County, CA)
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Of course the primary reason to spend the money on "printable" dual-layer DVD+Rs is to..........print on them. While I have not experienced the compatibility problems as expressed by the readers above I must, unfortunately, report that these DVDs refuse to work with my fabulous Dymo disc printer (brand new...). After extensive emails with Dymo on this they sent me an entire spindle of blank DVDs etc. of different brands (now there's a fabulous company that's got me as a customer for life) to test out. The RiData DVDs would NOT PRINT on this printer. Strange, huh! Anyway, the RiData were the only brand that my printer rejected. And these blank media are NOT exactly cheap...so I was very frustrated with RiData. Consequently, I am led down the path to purchase the far more expensive Verbatim instead.
Highly UNRECOMMENDED.....
 Large Center Hole January 20, 2008
B. Garrett (So Cal)
Writes perfectly every time. Prints nicely, too. My only problem with these Dual Layer Printable DVDs is that there is a large gap in the printable white coating around the center hole. Obviously no media is going to have white coating right up to the 1.75 cm hole, but all my other printable CDs and DVDs have about a 2.5 cm area that you have to plan for when creating your covers, where these RiData's have almost twice that at 4 cm. That's a big hole in the middle of your DVD picture that you have to plan for. Not a big deal when you're just putting some text, and maybe an additional small graphic on the disc, but if you, like me, make really nice DVDs that look like they might have been created by a movie studio, then it's a really huge hole in your graphic!
Other than that, these work fine for me. Good price, and realiable burning and it's really hard to find PRINTABLE double layer discs at all.
Poor compatibility December 15, 2007

I had about a 15% success rate burning these disks at half the rated speed (I usually always burn my disks at half rated speed to reduce the number of errors, except for 2.4x media which I burn at rated speed). I burned only at 4x and used both a Plextor 716SA and 755SA with the latest firmwares (1.11 and 1.08 respectively) on two different computers. I only had 2 successful burns out of 12 attempts with many different ISO's/MDF+ISO's and burning programs (I figured since the pack was open, I may as well at least try to get them working).
As mentioned above by another reviewer, I normally buy Verbatim 2.4x DVD+R DL ink jet printables, the 20 pack spindle, and have usually a 95%+ success rate at 2.4x.
Not so good for me November 30, 2007

I did not have very good luck with these Ridata discs.
I have one DVD player that is rather picky and it would not play these discs. I had mixed results in my other players - one had no problems and another played, but with some pixelation.
For over two dollars per disc, I expected better results, so I returned these. The Amazon return process was so easy it was almost fun, and I got my full refund confirmed today. GREAT SERVICE, Amazon!!!
Please keep in mind that some combinations of burners and discs work better than other combinations, so maybe these will work for you. My burners are NEC ND-3520A and ND-3550A.
I ordered a pack of a different brand which worked great for me. They were more expensive (same "price", but for a pack of only 20 vs. 25), but they worked great for me, so sometimes it's worth the extra bucks... and you can quote me "verbatim" on that. (wink wink)
