Only problem with Verbatim discs is that for whatever reason, they have been blacklisten by Lite-On.

What I mean is that ANY Lite-On drive, regardless of speed, will only write to a Verbatim disc at 16x.

It's a setting in their BIOS.

It's REALLY annoying.

BUT, that said - I wouldn't burn a PS1 game any faster than 16x anyway.

I keep meaning to put my Lite-On 24x back into my machine, because my Plextor DVD burner only burns at 16x for CD's... but then I try to remember the last time I didn't turn down to 16x anyway... and it was for Data, which I back up to DVD now anyway so...

I am sure you can download some old/hacked firmware that can take care of that problem.
