Made my first backup
 

Wahoooooooooooo.... I figured I was gonna make at least 4 or 5 coasters....But the first one worked.....I tried Lego SW 2...and I burned it at 1x...gonna try and burn one at max just to see if there is a difference....So exciting......Of course Live is down now....for about a day...Cant wait to see the NEW FEATURES they have.....

what media and burning tools did you use?

Verbatim discs and Pioner 111d. But I have made them now with a liteon, Ritek Discs...etc.... Mostly use the Verbatim and Liteon though....

what burning suite did you use?

I have always made successful backups using:

Pioneer 111D
Verbatim DVD+R DL discs
and ImgBurn or cloneCD.

I have great results using:

Pioneer 111-L DVD-RW
Samsung SH-D162c (Kreon 0.81)
Verbatim DVD+R DL
Xbox Backup Creator 2.3
CloneCD
