Thats the difference between low grade discs & higher grade ones. The Asus drive will automatically bit-set DVD+R to DVD-ROM. As for problems with DSE discs, its more likely to be some incompatibility with the drive. You can try updating the firmware, but a better option is to buy some good quality discs :) |

As you say, buy good quality disks in the first place, but the quality is unknown when you are standing in the shop. All you can go on is price, or some research on the forums. This thread has been very useful to me. |

I don't intend on keeping my DVD disks (primarily data backup) for more than a couple of years, so I'm not overly concerned about readability in 5 years time. |
