Bilib ako dati sa media na ito, pero hindi na ngayon.
Nagha-hang kasi ito sa Pioneer 355 standalone.

Ang RITEK R03 naman (+R, 8x, P35. each), "No Disc" sa Pioneer 366 when burned at 8x, although OK naman when burned at 4x.

Dahil laging rave reviews ang Ritek/Ridata sa mga message forums ng mga kano, akala ko magaling talaga ito.  Hindi rin naman pala.  Well... to each his own siguro.  What works well for one might not work well for another.

idlewild:
i have yet to try this disc on a standalone but in the cdfreaks forum, they mentioned this media is highly variable.  there's a possibility u might get a batch which doesn't work well.  so far, i'm getting good burns on this media with a smooth reading curve.  the -R 4X (RITEKG04), however, doesn't work well for me.

barrister:
Hindi naman siguro batch problem.

Ang totoo, I ALWAYS get a good burn on RIDATAs. Nero Transfer Rate Test ALWAYS shows a very smooth curve (similar to your graph on Reply #6 above), even smoother than some of my CMC 8x burns.  Ang problema, sablay sa standalone. 

Kahit gaanong kaganda pa ang maging resulta ng burn sa mga test utilities, kung palyado naman ang play sa standalone ko, wala rin.

At any rate, if the R02 works well for you, then I'm happy for you, my friend.  To each his own.
