JSngry Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 Imation's gotten mixed reviews, but I've always had good luck with'em up until now. Bought a spindle of 100, and they'd all only burn at 4X in the computer. Noticed that they were manufactured in India, which is a new one on me. What I suspect happened is that a new plant opened up in a new country, the QC hadn't gotten straight yet, and some Music discs were branded, packaged and labeled as Data discs. That's the most logical explanation, no? Anyway, Target was cool and let me exchange them for an equal quantity of Memorex for only $2.00 more, so that part's cool. But if you use Imation blanks even sporadically, be on the lookout for ones made in India. They may or may not have the same flaw as these did, so don't buy them for any panic projects. Quote
Christiern Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 Thanks for the alert. Yesterday, I purchased a 100-disc spindle of DVD+Rs. Sure enough, they are made in India. Quote
JSngry Posted November 18, 2005 Author Report Posted November 18, 2005 Hope there's no problems with those. Mine were CD-Rs, btw. Not sure if the potential for screwups would be the same. Let's hope not! Quote
