Hi guys,. I just bought my 106 for burning ps2 games.

Just wanted to know which is the BEST media for doing this, and the best software.

I heard ritek is the best, but i am in australia and I don't know where to find them. (Sydney)

Thanx guys, you are the best!

The best media would have to be Ritek and Verbatim. Neither of those have ever given me a problem when backing up a game. Alcohol 120% is the best known program for backing up Playstation 1 and 2 games. But Record Now, and Nero work great too.

Another thing.: DO I have to have the DVD Burner as a master or something special.

Thanx

Sometimes Pioneers perform better as master. Sometimes they don't work at all unless you set it as master.

I use a very simple formula for figuring out drive placement -

Most-Expensive-Device=Master

I hope this has been helpful for all.

And VERBATIM? That's a commercial brand I've seen. I'll try those - these GQ's were killing me even though they do boot up, the consistency is - ugh.
