Media For The Plextor PX-708A

[Robert Nurse]

Hi All,

I'm looking for DVD+/-RW media for my Plextor PX-708A and I can't seem
to find vendors that carry the following faster recommended media:

Mitsubishi Chemical DTW47*1/DHW47*
TDK DVD-RW47*, DVD-RW120*

If anyone has successfully and satisifactorily used DVD+/-RW media
with this drive, please share the brand, model number and where you
bought it.

TIA

I have a 25-pack of 4X rated TDK +R's I bought at Best Buy. They do burn
at 8X.

I also bought some Fuji 4X +RW's, and they work fine.

Newegg.com has the TDK DVD-RW47.The 4.7GB DVD+R 8X Ritek from
http://blankmedia.ca works at full 8x speeds. The newest firmware can be
