I use cheap discs and have almost 650 burns on my AOpen CD/RW with no probs. My Hp writer burned more than 2k discs before it died.

If they make 2 defective units in every 1000, you were probably just unlucky and got them both.

I use cheap discs and have burn about 1000cds on my old sony 8x4x32x
and its sill burning know and i have a new drive a LiteOn 32x12x40x burn about 400cds on that as well with cheap discs

I burned about 1200 on my Liteon 12X10X32 with no probs using the cheapest media around. I get my 100 packs for about 15 bucks US

just think ur unlucky m8 cheap discs shoudnt kill burner just gives u more chance of making coasters!

Don't think the disks make any difference as long as they're rated correctly. I've burned about 1000 Arita CDR's on my 4x HP burner with no probs so far.
