Hi all,

I have just bought myself a lite on shm-165h6s. I read the reviews and it indicated that it has issues with some media.

This might be a noob question but is there a list of what media is known to work well with specific writer models?

If someone has the model I purchased can you recommend what brand of media I should be using to get optimal results?

To me, the scans for Taiyo Yuden 8x DVD -R look best, but maybe there have been firmware updates since the review which might have improved results with other media.

Fair enouf. I will check for latest firmware as well and see how it makes a diff. Thanks for the info.

Regardless of the brand of your drive try use Sony, Fuji (MIJ) and Verbatim media.

I like the Fuji made in Japan too. Have some and never had a problem.
