Hi Yuri I have long since given up on the old floppies,(hugs USB pen drive.) but CDR can be 50/50.
There arn't many cdr manufacture in the world. I think 5 at last count and they basicly compete on price per unit. So the low price one's like transonic/mr data etc can vary like the sea tide and should be given a pass. In my experience the bigger brands tends to be more stable eg Sony,Imation,Verbatum. But i still recamend burning disk's at 16x to get 100% compatabilty, with all cdr's.
