Probably a stupid question

[hicky232]

hi i was wondering if somebody could let me know which method to try first when backing up games the data burn methord or the iso methord as dvd medium aint exactly cheap so i was wondering which methord has the highest succes rate.

Thanx Hicky

[Quall999]

databurn seems to works for me the best, so i suggest you use that.

[hicky232]

thanx

[dude]

yeah use the data burn method.

p.s if you don't mind me asking. dvd media not cheap ? i live in the uk and get mine for about 70. pence per disc.

[Quall999]

Dude, which brand of dvd's do you use? I have HP and Verbatum and the games I have backup get reading errors as oppsed to games i back up on other dvd media.

[dude]

bulkpaq generation 4 green dvd-r x2 speed
datawrite red x 4 speed dvd-r

both these i use for data ( mp3's) movies and xbox games all perfect with no problems. like i said depending on supplier i get them for around 70 p each or some suppliers sell them for 25 for £17.00 or a spindle of 50 discs for £ 34.00

i have used virtually every brand going to date but i find the price and overall stabillity very good value

verbatim isnt supposed to be top noch on dvd brands?
:confused:

[Quall999]

Verbatim isn't bad, but they aren't the best. They have been making media for a very long time, so I ussually go for their products.

[hicky232]

that worked a treat and has dun ever since and answer to question earlier 70p aint exactly cheap compared to normall 80 min cds

i use datawrite classic 69p each :P

thanx all hicky

[dude]

ahh but the difference between dvd and cd warrants the difference in price. plus 70 p not cheap who are you scrooge ?
