Memorex the best.

Advantages: Good quality recording with excellent results
Disadvantages: None. Perhaps being a brand name makes them more expensive?

...With writeable CD's offering so much choice in today's market, you can afford to be a bit choosy when buying the media you want. Nearly every company that once offered audio tapes now offers a range of recordable CD's. However, it does not stop there. Most technology companies that make Computer hardware have taken it on themselves to offer recordable CD's too. But they are all different standards with some more suitable to certain tasks than others. One of the better writeable CD manufacturers on the market today are Memorex. Let me tell you about Memorex CD's. Firstly, they offer an entire range of recordable media. First off are its CD-R's which are "one shot wonders". This means they can be recorded on once only. If it goes wrong during the recording process, the Disc is lost. Next up are their CD-RW which are...

Review of Memorex CD-R 700 MB 8x

Memorex, oh yes

Advantages: Reliable
Disadvantages: I could have brought them cheaper elsewhere

...I was looking for some CDR's to back up my hard drive now its full of important work. I went down to my local computer shop where they stocked a variety of brands. Chocie is important but not when your in a hurry so I decided to pick a brand I was familar with. I have heard of Memorex before and have purchase VHS' from them before and they worked fine. Going on previous expirences of memorex products I thought they would be O.K. I brought the pack of CDR's for £19.99 for a pack of 25 which I thought was quite reasonable until I was told about online stores doing them for cheaper. The CDR's come on a spindel which is useful to keep the dust off them. Each CDR can hold 700mbs of data and 80 minutes of music. The spidel says that you can record up to 24x speed by my writer only does 4x. The spidel is made of black plastic and is pretty...

Olympus 8X25 WP I

Advantages: Image adjustments to give great view, waterproof, adjustable eye-relief
Disadvantages: fixed magnification, average build and design quality

...Binoculars are mainly used by bird watchers as to get a closer look at them. Many people also use binoculars for occasions such as holidays where they travel to destinations of natural beauty. Using a binocular enables them to see the scenic beauty from a better and closer perspective. The Olympus 8X25 WPI is labeled professional, but can obviously be used by everyday and ordinary people. These particular binoculars have an 8x magnification ability. This is simply the power of magnification on the binoculars, the 8x magnification means that the object or area you view through the binoculars is going to appear 8x larger or closer. The 8x magnification also means that this is the maximum and minimum magnification power of the binoculars. You cannot view an object or place with a lesser or higher magnification than 8x. If in...

Swarovski EL 8 X 32 WB

Advantages: Weight, ergonomics, clarity, brightness, ease of use

The Need For Speed

Advantages: Cheap & Very Reliable, Fast Speed
Disadvantages: None

...with Memorex CD-R discs. They are 700MB or 80 Mins standard single layer discs and are 52x in speed. One of the fastest speeds on the market. Most modern recorders support this speed however some are slower. The discs still work with a slower burner but are limited in write speed to the recorder being used. They come in packs of 25, 50 & 100 discs in a cake layer box. I personally pay £6 for a box of 100 and consider them a good price for what they are. Other more expensive manufacturers may provide you with a jewel case. My experiences with them are as follows: I use them regularly for reading and writing. The data I store on the discs are applications, Photos, Mp3/Music, Video and documents. I have tested them in Pioneer, LG, Sony and Liteon Burners using Nero Burning Rom as my choice of burning software. I have never experienced any...

Review of Leica 8 X 32 BN

DVD-Rn't so good

Advantages: Jewel case included
Disadvantages: Inconsistent burn success, expensive, not printable

...£1.20 a piece was not too bad, but with the current prices per disk being somewhere between 20 and 50 pence per disk, Memorex have failed to keep pace with the market. The cons to the Memorex -R media are: 1) The prices of disks have not kept pace with other well-known brands; at £1.20 a piece, they are now one of the most expensive brands I can remember seeing. 2) The disks are not printable - a bit of a pain as I have just shelled out £250 for a printer with disk printing capabilites. 3) The jewel case supplied is only CD-sized, so your DVD+Rs stand out against the rest of yur DVD collection on a shelf. 4) If you have a newer DVD burning drive, these will only burn at a maximum of 4x speed. 5) The -R Memorex disks do not seem to be as reliable as their +R brothers. If you have a dual format drive and your DVD...

Review of Memorex DVD-R 4.7 GB 8x

DVD+R Good

Advantages: Very reliable, come in a ase
Disadvantages: Not very cheap, slow burn speed, not printale

...Memorex have a long history of media production for computers, so it is little surprise to see them releasing writable DVDs in the rapidly-expanding home burning market. Although not one of the brands I would have picked initially by choice, I have bought several more boxes of these disks and have found them to be consistently good. When I received a DVD writer for my birthday last year, my wife thoughtfully supplied a spindle of ten Benq DVDs. After successfully creating three coasters (disks that did not burn correctly), it became apparent that my DVD writer was not going to recognise these disks. As with all presents, I really, really wanted to try out my new burner and so I rushed off to WH Smith and bought a box of the only DVD+Rs they had; a box of 5 jewel-cased Memorex disks for the recently reduced price of £5.99. At the time...

Searching For Reliable CDR's? Look No Further

Advantages: Blank Cd's, On A Spindle, Diffrent Colour Scheme, Low Cost
Disadvantages: No Jewel Cases,

...Cdr?s are so abundant now-a-day?s. Every time I go into a computer shop I see them covering a shelf in packs of 5, 10, 15,20?. well anything up to 250 I?ve seen. When I need cdr?s I tend to go for packs of 100, but these usually come in 74 mins (650Mb). But there comes a point in a persons life where 74min cdr?s aren?t enough and you need something special?something like a 80min (700Mb) cdr. Well fear not Memorex have the perfect cdr?s for the job. These are Cd-r's not Cd+r's. They come in packs of 25, which is great because most cdr?s I use only require the bulk purchased 74min cdr?s. They come on a spindle which reduced the price you have to pay because some other cdr?s that come in jewel cases cost that little bit more. The spindle doesn?t bother me because it allows me to separate the Memorex cdr?s from the other cdr?s. But...
