That's ok, I'm sitting here with 300 Ty 8x discs from earlier BB B1G1F sale.

They're back! New coupon, that just came out today. It comes from combining the name of this month with the number of events in a decathalon. These disks are great! DVDIdentifier shows them as TYG02 for me which is actually the 8x variety. Burned flawlessly so far for me.

 

[weirdichi]

tyty... just ordered one.

 

[Monkeytool]

bought 200 last time they went on sale, WOW these are nice disks, been burning at 12x for me on my 3520a w/ fimrware ug.
Thanx again OP

 

[SameerK]

so they're really TYG02 even though they say TYG01 on the website?

 

[mrrman]

Sweet 12x, did you test for errors? How are they working? Firmware UG. Can I get a link to that.?

Well, I've run identifier on 4 different disks so far and each one comes up like this:


---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unique Disc Identifier : [DVD-R:TYG02]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disc & Book Type : [DVD-R] - [DVD-R]
Manufacturer Name : [Taiyo Yuden Co. Ltd.]
Manufacturer ID : [TYG02]
Blank Disc Capacity : [2,298,496 Sectors = 4,489.3MB = 4.38GB (4.71GB)]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ DVD Identifier - http://DVD.Identifier.CDfreaks.com ]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I got mine the last sale and I got the TYG01 with dvd identifier.

 

[Ricochet]

Thanx, OP. Good timing too because I just got the NEC ND-3520A from Newegg.

Lol, I got it off baked's sig do a search for him. Also I did test for errors, I think there is a thread somewhere around here with some similar figs, I remember they were considerably low for 12x on 4x disks, about 12 burns so far and no coasters, so its workin pretty well. I use dvd shrink, and I can backup MY dvds in about 30mins total. Im pretty pleased.
