Summary: Imation sucks
Review: Buyers beware! Don¡¦t buy any Imation DVD media. On Imation¡¦s website they claim the media is capable of writing speed of 4X but it is all lies. I have the latest Pioneer A06 4x dual format recorder and this sucker only burns at 1X and makes lots of coaster (15% failure rate). I strongly recommend the Memorex. Not only it burns blazingly fast at 4X but costs about the same. As a side note, the Memorex disc is completed flat on the surface thus makes labeling much easier and appears much more professional when comparing to the Imation with a raised ring at the center.

Summary: Bad Towards End Of Disc
Review: I bought 2 of these, and had problems with almost all of them. In the last 20% of each disc, I couldn't write anything that didn't have errors.I used a lite-on 401s. The media code was CMC MAG R01. I've read nothing good about this media code.

Summary: Good value, good DVD-Video compatiblity, DRU500A compatible
Review: I have a Sony DRU500A and even though these are not on the list of DVD-R that were tested with this unit I have had no problem burning these. I have also had excellent DVD-Video compatiblity with these blanks with Nero 5.5.x.x Burning ROM when using the DVD ISO/UDF Bridge record option. I have several DVD-Video players ranging from old to new and these discs work well in all of them.

Summary: Good compatibility & Work well with DRU510a
Review: I recently purchased a SONY dru-510ak (same as 510a, but the "K" version came with the black face plate option) and I've always had good luck with imation's cd-r & cd-rw's so I thought I'd take a chance.
I burned a data dvd, worked flawlessly.
I burned a dvd movie (backup of a movie I own) using the .iso feature of the software that came with the drive (and some free software from the net) & it burned a perfect backup.
I've played the backup dvd in 3 different dvd players, both pc and set top boxes with excellent results.
If you check sony's compatibility chart, the imation brand isn't listed (I didn't find this out until after I had bought the drive & discs) Luckily the imations worked just fine.
I found my dvd-r's locally with a buy one get one free deal and I couldn't be happier.
I've only tried a few different brands of dvd-r's so far, including verbatim & a no name brand. The verbatim worked well, with the exception of one coaster. The no name brand won't burn anything (but coasters) with my drive.
