dvd prob for ps2
 

ok guys got another dilemma aaaaaaaaaaaaarrrgggghhhhh!!!!!!

i got a laptop and want to get an external dvd writer, is this a bad move, i dont really have much choice though do i??
i could wait a while till i invest in a computor and then get an internal dvd writer but i dont see what difference it makes, can someone explain???

whats the best dvdr disk to use for backups on ps2??



cheers!!!

Have a read of yr other thread ( which DVD Burner - DOH!) for a possible solution.

As for which discs, DVD-R ( not dvd+r) every time, Traxdata, Ritek, DVD Master or verbatim (not inkjet printable) should be fine.

All the above dvd-r have a dark purple "plum colour" write surface which the ps2 laser reads fine. You can buy other ( probably cheaper ) brands of dvd-r but they will have light purple write surfaces and could cause problems with ps2 reading them accurately.

I use traxdata 4X or verbatim and get no problems at all.

Regardsl

cheers man!
