Even though Blu rays are becoming outdated to the younger generations, these blu rays are of great quality. I create and edit new movies of old home movies from friends and relatives old 8mm films and VHS home movies. Once finished editing, I burn them onto these Optical Quantum 50 GB Blu Rays which they rather prefer having then dealing with flash drives.

Finally, a BDR-DL 50 that copies a long blu-ray movie without a hitch! Still, pricey, but at least you won't be trying to figure out how to recycle every other disc. Sorry, Verbatim, but your quality control has had its day. Now you only have to consider the quality/integrity of the source media.

I know it sounds more or less like something you should always do. And when I say test, I mean, after the writing software has finished 100% successful & has verified contents of the disc, then finally spits out your finished BD-R/BD-R DL disc.Now, I have 5+ years experience with writing BD-R media, and over 15+ years regarding DVD-R media & the hobby in general. I’ve never had a disc successfully finish burning without any errors, and pop out 100% verified only for all 3 different kinds of Bluray players in my home not be able to load the disc WHATSOEVER!THAT IS, until I ordered a 10pk batch of these dual-layered discs. I had 2 of the 9 I’ve used so far do this exact same thing as described above. And now that I think about it, the only time I’ve had issues with any brand/size of BD-R media is when the discs are logo printed/branded on the top. I’ve never had issues with any matte white inkjet printable surfaced media. And I think I’ll be going back to them exclusively.But again, you STILL should test them in your standalone Bluray player just to be 100% sure they read, even if they make it thru the entire writing/verification process your PC runs the disc through. Your player and/or PS3/4 still might not recognize it as a playable disc. :(

Used on older /slower burner so burn process was painfully long. burn only 2 so far, no errors. These media tend to be overpriced, possibly due to low demand.

These BD-R DL 50GB Recordable disc's have been my favorite for the last 5 or 6 years. I have NEVER experienced a failure using these disc's. The life span of the disc's is also a major factor to consider. I have had Major Brand BD-R DL 50GB disc's fail after a year. On the same note I have never had one of these fail and some I have had for up to 6 years with back ups of my favorite Blu-ray movies on them that play as well as the Blu-ray that I backed up. The key is to first use good software to make your copy or rip, then do not record directly from the folder that contains the data but rather make an ISO image of the movie and then burn your Blu-ray from that image. Doing so allows the user to verify the data or image prior to committing it to a disc that can be expensive. This also allows the user to choose where to "Split" the data that is being written to a Dual Layer Disc which means that the Layer is essentially "Page Two" of the 2 page movie, and the place where that data splits is or can be critical to the success of the finished product. This is why an application such as IMGBurn is suggested for this purpose, and it is amazingly 100% free to the user and the most reliable software I have used to record DVD and Blu-ray disc's. One last note, Optical Quantum doesn't manufacture their disc's so its a good idea to identify the disc's that are working well for you. Going from a 4x to a 6x disc will most likely be a totally different manufacturer which may give the user totally different results which is why I only buy the 4x BD-R 25GB and the 6x BD-R DL 50GB disc's from OQ, and they work every time, and that is after well over 1,000 25GB disc's and 600 of the 50GB disc's.

I've used literally over 5000 of these BD-25s and BD50s for backup purposes at work. What I've learned will hopefully save someone out there a lot of headache and/or heartache over data loss.These discs, and all discs (except M-Discs), are NOT meant for long term storage. They use a partially organic dye that WILL begin to erode over time, corrupting the disc and losing all of the data stored on it. You can write the disc, place the disc in a case, put in on a bookshelf and never use it again and it will still fail eventually. Others have posted photos of what this looks like in their reviews so I'm not going to. The point to learn here is DON'T store ANYTHING that you don't want to lose on a disc (except M-Disc).These come with two different types of dye. There's one that's a blue/purple color and another that's gold in color. What you want is the gold. Those last A LOT longer than the blue/purple dye. The problem is you never know what type you're going to get. I've had the blue/purple dyed discs begin to erode in just a couple of months of no use. I have yet to have a gold dyed one fail and many are over 10 years old but I know it will still happen eventually. The BD-50s are more likely to have gold dye than the BD-25s.For what they're meant for, short term storage, they work great. Just don't use them for long term storage because you will lose everything you have saved. It's just a matter of time.
