    Best DVD-R Media for SONY DRU500A

    Soon my new Sony DRU500A drive will be in my hands. I searched around a bit, but I wasn't sure exactly what type of DVD-R media I should get for it. I want to be able to burn homebrew, movies, etc and I want the best quality. I found a type on here before called NEO? It said they were the 1st dvd-r media specifically made for games and movies. But I can not find them anymore. Does anyone know where I may find these? If not, what is the absolute best DVD-R I can get? I live in the US btw. Thanks.

    you can get neos (my babies) from here m8

    http://xboxmods.com/products.php#neodvdr

    also on there are the purple bulqpaqs which a lot of people including me have had good results with, but at the end of the day it really comes down to what brand your xbox likes, and your ps2 for that matter, neos were the first sub £5 disc my ps2 would accept.

    best thing to do is get a couple of each and test them out.

    you can also get cheap discs at
    www.bigpockets.co.uk

    verbatim and tdk are very good brands but are much more expensive than the others, just try some cheaper ones first, you might just find the purple ones work a treat

    no probs, just hope they work for you on YOUR xbox, dont forget to check out the other link above m8 for cheap blanks, make sure you at least try some cheaper ones, as a lot of them work fine, for example the new(ish) purple top bulqpaqs, they work brilliantly in my xbox and my ps2, so check a few brands out before sticking to one.
