Do Traxdata DVD-Rs work well for PS2 backups? I have seen some at bigpockets.co.uk for £10.90 for 10 discs. Are they any good? Does anyone have any good or bad experiences with them and do they work well? If these don't work well then can anyone suggest where I can some good working ones cheap? I have a Pioneer A04 and a V4 PS2 modded with Messiah. ;)

Thanks for all your help and the brill forum...

I beleive Dust2Dust and some others use these DVD-R's with good success....... You could also use Princos as a cheap alternative...

Dust2Dust seems to experiment with all types of DVD-R's....
Try e-mailing him... He can probably tell you what he has had the BEST success with and the cheapest prices.....

I second that. I use Traxdata DVD-R with no problems. www.bigpockets.co.uk are a good source, you could also try www.121cdr.co.uk

Me too not one failure to date and Big Pockets service was excelent.
There's postage on top of the £10 from BP but it's still good value.

yeah, the postage is set around £5 for whatever, so I always purchase in bulk.
