DATAWRITE OPTIMA BLUE 8X DVD-RRITEKG05 
This disc has the RITEKG05 media code with the deep purple dye. The top surface is a nice pastel shade of blue with the Description, DVD logo & Datasafe logo stencil cut out to reveal the silver backing to the dye. The Datawrite name is in yellow with the exaggerated "w" in red. This color scheme is pleasant to the eye and one of the nicest to come from the Datawrite stable. The center ring is clear with the batch number stamped around the center hole. The rim is fairly smooth with only minor irregularities in the glue

| | | Although this media had the available write speed of 12x I was only able to write at a maximum of ZCLV 8x the large dip in the middle of the graph is where the 8-12x transition should have been. | | ZCLV Typical 3 stage transition up to 8x speed | | | | Good all round graph with a PI peak of only 30 with no large fluctuations
Jitter is fairly constant averaging 11.4
PIF is almost nil | | Good all round graph with a PI blip at the 6-8x transition with a peak of 416 at the edge
Jitter fluctuates at the two speed transition points average 13.6 and a peak at the end of 32.3 (just a bit high)
PIF is almost nil right up to 4 gig when it rises to a peak of 21 | | | | | Good speed scan the minor blip in the middle is down to background processes whilst scanning | | Good scan up to 4 gig with a few blips at the outer edge consistent with the PI/PIF graphs |

| |  Pioneer DVR-106D 4x Speed | | | | PCAV increase from 6x to 8x speed | | CLV at 4x speed | | | | Good all round graph with a PI starting at 5 with gradual increase to a maximum of 21 during the latter half with no large fluctuations
Jitter is fairly constant averaging 11.3
PIF is almost nil | | Good all round graph with a PI starting at under 10 with gradual increase to a maximum of 37 at the end with no large fluctuations
Jitter is fairly constant averaging 11.1
PIF is almost nil good all round graph | | | | Good scan up to 4gig with a few dips at the outer edge | | Good scan up to 4.2gig with a few dips at the outer edge | The PI/PIF & jitter scans all show good results with this media and the Pioneer DVR-109speed test is good. These dips in the speed tests with the other drives did not result in any read errors and playback of the video content did not falter in all the players I tested them in, so they are not detrimental to playback
I will give this media another thumbs up. | Added: Wednesday, May 11, 2005 Reviewer: FlashRelated web link: For other reviews on this mediahits: 6845
