compatibility with this new media.
In this review we get to look at the Taiyo Yuden 8x DVD-R media Media for our CDR-Zone.COM readers.
Taiyo Yuden defines the de facto global standard for write-once recordable media through the development of high quality, highly reliable products based on the company's leading-edge technologies.
"Over ten years' involvement in optical disk development has allowed Taiyo Yuden to cultivate high-level core technologies. These capabilities have enabled the company to achieve significant advances in thermal design technology for disk pigmentation and substrate design, and assure the ability to mass produce stable multi speed media."

Our review media arrived shrink wrapped in a heavy duty spindle of 100 unbranded with a silver non printable surface.
The recording surface is purple in colour and carries the TYG02 dye code according to VSO Inspector and Nero CD Speed.
