I found the Toshiba SD-R5002. Seems really good and has a nice price. I think I´ll use -R. What do u think about the burner?

Sorry but I can´t find anything usefull on that page. I´ve found 2 DVD-Recorder. Now I just need to know which one is better. The Toshiba SD-R5002 or the Pioneer DVR-A04. I´ve seen in some tests where the Pioneer DVR-A04 did really well, but I haven´t seen any tests the Toshiba SD-R5002 was in. The Toshiba SD-R5002 is faster in reading CDs/DVDs and writing CD-R/RW and the price is 300$. But if it quality isn´t any good I´ll buy the Pioneer DVR-A04.

Isn´t it unessential which one u buy, if its DVD -R. Or are there big differences?

Heres an article I just found on another forum site! I said there was nowt wrong with dvd-r but if this is owt to go by!!!!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I had the same problem a while back. I had about 20 DVD-r backups and not one would boot once I installed the magic 2. Actually they boot but after like 5 to 10 resets. Keep in mind that these backups worked flawlessly when I had neo 2.2 installed. I was so frustrated. I contacted a installer and sent it to him. He received it and called me 2 days later saying it boots up everytime. Ofcourse I called him a lier and told him he was full of sh*t. Anyway he sent my ps2 back and included a game (EOE) that was burned using cheap $0.99 media from americal and one blank americal dvd-r. EOE fired up every damn time. So I figured it was the media. I tried burning Stuntman with the blank he sent me and guess what, it didn't work. It took about 10 resets to get it to fire up. I concluded that my DVD burner wasn't buring right. I owned a panasonic lf-3d11 DVD RAM/R. Anyway I started reading and it uses a different laser because of the dvd ram capability. So I broke down and bought a pioneer dvr-104 for $245.00 shipped. Now everything I burn seems to play flawlessly. If you have a panasonic or another recorder other than the pioneer that is most likely the problem. It worked for me
