Verbatim BD-RE 25GB 2X with Branded Surface - 10pk Spindle,White

First off, Macs don't tend to play well with blu-ray discs and I was getting tired of using the write-once kind, only to have them fail mid-way during the writing process (Verbatim discs, which I have always found to be superior to the other brands that I have tried). The same write-once discs and burner used to work fine on older Mac OSs. I will say that while blu-ray discs aren't amazingly cost effective, I've found them to be more reliable in the long run than solid state or rotating hard-disk drives. Plus, once something is written optically, it's automatically an offline backup, which helps protect your files from malware and such. I found that with these discs, I do need to do a complete "erase" on each one before writing, but that may be a Mac OS thing. I'm not sure. So far, I haven't had a single one of these fail, and if they did, well, that's the point of re-writable. Keep in mind that these are 2x discs, so they will burn slowly, but that's not a huge deal for me. I always burn at the slowest speed anyway since I have had the best luck doing so. Keep in mind, if you have a Mac, you'll usually need third party software to burn any blu-ray properly. That software can get expensive. But again, it's nice to have offline copies of my most important files. It's also easy to keep an additional copy at another physical location. As with any optical disk, keep them out of sunlight and heat. A case is a good idea as well, but I haven't had any issues with scratching. So if you need BD-RE, these are a great choice!

Grabbed these to install the ps5 bd-jb jailbreak, worked pretty well. When writing it, I learned of some way to write the files to it much quicker than doing a full iso drive write. I forgot what it's called, but you basically format the disc to be a USB drive in windows, and then copy the contents of the jailbreak ISO (not the ISO itself) into the disc directory. Then it's only writing those files which were very small in comparison to this disc. It also makes it much easier to update or replace files on it later as well.

Its very good quality

Priced well, where large data storage is needed, have had no issues with storing data on the disk.

excelente lo recibi muy buen articulo, lo recomiendo

Well, my LAST of the 5-pak cd-rw's died just last month-from 2004! And since I haven't used/installed any dvd-r burners since 2010, it was MY turn! On my rig. Verbatim is the second best disc on the planet behind JVC, out of Tokyo. These work GREAT with my blu-ray drives as well as the clients' machines. I have ONLY used Verbatim's in my business venture and have NEVER lost any data. Even over time, as the old photo-optic types can degrade to the point of non-readability. Verbatim has never done this, nor have i received any info about one doing this.

If you want TRUE danger-free storage of you favorite documents, this is the way to go. Want to unload 250 GB from your hard drive, watch the content and have the option to delete it afterward? BD-RE is a perfect solution. I even replaced a Faulty File with a Functional one LONG after the Disc was burned. Great versatility and Verbatim is the Brand I Trust!

Wanted to be able to test my Blu Ray burner and software (Pinnacle Studio and Nero) and wanted rewriteables before I started burning BD-R. These work well for me. So far, I've only used one disc from the pack. I've written and erased it about a dozen times and it's still going strong.
