Verbatim Japan VBE130NP50SV1 Blu-ray Disc for Repeated Recording, 25 GB, 50 Sheets, White Printerable, Single Side, 1 Layer, 1-2x Speed

The blu-ray disks work as they should. No read/write errors and decent speed. Were cheaper than other offers, too. Will buy again some time.

After using these disks for a few weeks, I can report that results have been generally good. One observation I have made over several years of using various BD-RE disks is that they can have compatibility issues with different Bluray drives. In particular, all the BD-RE disks I have encountered use a 2X write speed. I have an LG drive that writes at 2.3X even if the recording software is set to 2X. The drive reads disks without problems, but disks written with this drive frequently fail to verify. I recently bought a Pioneer USB drive that usually writes at 1.9X. Disks consistently verify as good with this drive. The freeware tool IMGBURN displays disk data, from which I infer that the disk contains information about its write speed that the drive picks up. That leads to the conclusion that the problem is with the drive, not the media. Since these disks are fairly new, I cannot say how many rewrites are possible before the disk fails for good.

I have used dozens and almost all work perfectly. Only a very few had problems (reduced capacity). Works great on my LG bluray drive.

I bought these some time ago, but just now know enough to write some kind of review.I bought these primarily due to their reputation as being high quality and reliable. Unfortunately, while at a good price, they just do not give the performance they should. Of the 50 discs in this spindle, I have used 9 and in each case they lasted up to 4 re-writings (that was only 1 disc) before no longer being reusable. For the rest of them, they only last 2 re-writings. While the computer recognizes them and shows plenty of free space available (22.5 GB), you get an error message stating that the burn failed.Time to look for something more reliable.

The 50 pcs per spindle makes it very economical to store your old data, pictures etc...Its ideal to copy your old date and keep it in case you may need to refer.I used it for my old emails files, scanned catalogues and pictures and it is reliable.It much safer to store in this Blu-ray then the portable HDD or SSD.The printable surface is good as you can print to identify your disc and its better then placing a label on it as from my experience, thelabel can make the disc unbalance dynamically and when you access data it may have error or even damage your writer/reader/

You lose one star for crappy packaing. Those spool cases are wonderful, in theory, but they're made of such cheap plastic that ALWAYS breaks during shipping. I wish Amazon would put some bubble wrap about the darn spool! THEN you'll get all 5 stars!

Nice discs, I've used four, so far, and so far, they've all worked very well. Haven't yet had occasion to rewrite any, but hopefully that feature will work as well.

Absolutely no coaster. All disc work and the price from Japan seller is less than 1 dollar per DVD. Welcome to the 21 century
