Default What CDrs to use?

What CDrs are best to use on my Zappo CD rom?

All my current ones just GURU the Amiga when it reads them!

I have used all my cdr-media.co.uk own brand ones!


What you guys reckon?

I never buy anything other than RiTek RiData CDRs. With DVD-Rs, I get either the RiData G05s, or Taiyo Yuden 16Xs. If you go for the REALLY cheap junk, expect loads of trouble.

It really is a combination of drive and discs; I found Philips CDR media to be very good, but also never had trouble using Imation. (on a NEC 3540 DVD burner)

A bad and unreadable media should not GURU the miggy. Bad software does. I think you better check your workbench to see what's wrong.

Default Re: What CDrs to use?

ummm. its a clean install of WB3.1 then 3.5.

it reads my philps and cdrm discs but not the printable ones and the ones from poundland.

Thinking might be down to die content. If i finds it hard to read then zappo system gurus.

Can I get AMICDFS to work with my zappo drive? if so what file to i need to tell amicdfs to use as the controler?
