I was very impressed by this media! It scored very well in all the tests that I performed on it even at speeds of 48x!
Though I do find it interesting that the older Maxell branded 40x Ritek CD-Rs had better test results then this newer 48x Ritek Media.
I should stress though, that even though the 40x Ritek media was a little better, this media is still VERY good.
I would recommend this media for any kind of use. It has a very low amounts of C1 errors
reported by my tests, and I would expect these discs to have a very long lifespan. Also, I would recommend these discs
for people with all types of CD Burners, as they perform well at all speeds from 4x to 48x, and I suspect the same
would be true of speeds higher then 48x.
On a slightly more technical note, I find it strange that these discs performed slightly better at higher speeds, then they did at 4x or 8x.
The difference is fairly small, but it *IS* noticable. Perhaps newer discs are being conditioned for use at more common speeds, such as 24x and higher?
however, this is only a personal theory.
