Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Philips DR8S8B50F/17 50 Pack 8X DVD+R DL SpindleCustomer Review: Excellent Results So Far!!! Summary: 5 Stars
(Update, added 09/07/2009)
To-date, DVD-DL burning at rates of 1x to 4x has yielded one (1) failure out of 35 (less than 3%) using the Samsung SH-S203N SATA device. Will, definitely, buy more of this product again. Good luck!
Hello All,
We purchased a 50-pk spindle for $39.99 plus shipping (comes out to 90 cents a piece). We use a recently installed Samsung SATA SH-S203N DVD+-RW/RAM (updated to SB02 firmware). Our installed RecordNow! from Sonic (v6.5.1) does not recognize the DVD drive's double layer capability. We downloaded and installed DVD Decrypter v3.5.4.0 (freeware) and use it to successfully decrypt DVDs for backup purposes, even with RCE protection, generating files onto the PC's local hard drive. We downloaded and installed ImgBurn v2.4.2 (freeware, v2.5.0 also available) and use it to successfully create .ISO image files, also onto the PC's local hard drive, of the decrypted DVD files. We, again, use ImgBurn to successfully burn the .ISO image files to the blank Philips DL DVDs loaded into the Samsung SH-S203N DVD drive. Excellent results with write speeds of 1X, 2X and 4X. Tip: When generating the .ISO files from the source decrypted DVD files, target the .ISO files to a different physical hard drive, if available -- the process goes much faster as different hard drives and, thus, different write heads are used (if targeted to the same physical hard drive as the source decrypted DVD files, the drive's heads have to perform both read (source) and write (target) functions. Good luck!
