There are a couple already made, but its been a while and there are newer firmwares available and now seems to be a good time to begin a new thread.
Let me start each of these thread by saying YOU CANNOT GO WRONG PURCHASING VERBATIM DVD+R DL DISCS!
they are currently the best discs available for 360 backups, flat out.
you can get them fairly cheap, sometimes as low as $1.50 a disk in packs of 10-30.
any other media you use, may work for you at first, but dont be surprised to see a dirty disc error in the future.
store brands, off brands, etc.)
anyways, lets try and keep this thread clean, stating what works in the same format.
(I am putting this in both hitatchi and samsung threads as an example, please keep it as clean as you can with what works.)

has been doing what you're asking for a while already... yup.
And as for Verbatim - if you've got a pioneer - buy mom and pop DL's and your backup will run.
Media is irrelevant.

im setting some of these posts as invisible, as it got out of hand a second... anyways, this is not a flame/agrue thread, just a listing of working setups.
jester, if you got my pm, please take a quick second to put some info out on the importance of using quality media as opposed to mom and pops, just so people know that media is NOT irrelevant.

Will a Verbatim DVD-R DL work? My place is selling Verbatim DVD-R DL @US$24.8 for 10 disc in a cake box instead of US$31.80 for Verbatim DVD+R DL 10 disc. Since DVD-R DL is cheaper for me, i had bought DVD-R DL instead. Is there any special step to take for burning backup into DVD-R DL disc?

I have heard bad things abut Bulkpaq in the past but I have been using single layer Bulkpaq DVDs for years in the original xbox and they all still work perfectly.
My 360 drive is Samsung m25 ( using Xtreme 3.2 firmware)
My burner is Pioneer 111D using firmware 1.23.
One other point. I couldnt get my 111D to even recognise Traxdata discs at all, so Ill stay away from them in the future. I ended up selling them on ebay and got most of my money back.

F/W: Xtreme 3.0
DVD Drive: TS1493 (was MS28, biggest pain in the ass to flash)
I didnt think the fry's brand would work with these games but it works perfectly fine. No coasters yet.
I did have problems with the via card freezing up my computer everytime i'd turn on the computer and the 360. Uninstalled the raid utility, once I did that. I was able to see the drive in windows no problem
Used DVDINFO pro to extract .bin files. Unlock code didn't work for dead rising but ISO buster detected the game data so I didn't have to worry about that. Ripped and burned at 2.4x.
All works great.
I see everyone is using 3.3, any problems with it? I'm thinking about flashing mine from 3.0 to 3.3

First the parts:
SH-D162C w/ kreon v.81
Pioneer DVR-111D
Programs I used XBC, and the iso builder method
Mobo: Gigabyte DS3 board, with only 1 IDE (very important)
Second is the configuration:
Initally what I did was use my Pioneer Burner and Hard DRive on the IDE cable. HD being master and Burner being slave. That burned games fine. No errors.
After, i decided to install my Sh-D162c drive in my pc so I took off the HD, put in a sata drive instead and put the samsung dvd rom as the IDE Master. -ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE AND MADE 5 COASTERS AFTER VARIOUS TESTS-
So what happened then,
I left the pioneer drive on the IDE cable, made the samsung SH-d162c as an external DVD ROM with an adapter and everything was okay again.
So in conclusion, if you are experiencing problems, my solution was this, the DVD-ROM and DVD writer has to have it's own IDE cable or connection, they cannot share one. or else you will get errors out the @$$.
This may not fix all the problems but should certain help some people.

What surprises me here is that not one single person has tried Taiyo Yuden discs? Taiyo Yuden discs are the absolute best in terms of quality for every other application in the world, so I assumed I'd come in here and find everyone saying to pay the extra coin and look for the "Made in Japan". You won't find them in your local store probably, but as far as consistency and dye quality, they're supposed to be the best. I'll have to get a pack and test them out and report back on my findings.

Actually they do make D/L DVD-R discs but they are currently only available in ASIA. That and given the format and the cost I'm not sure I would risk the purchase. Believe me though if they made D/L DVD+R discs and had them widespread, I would ditch my Verbatims for them in a heartbeat.

Traxdata were far the better discs, but of course are the most expensive. RiDisc discs were horrible, they all burned sucessfully but failed verification on imgburn and all issues were in the second layer of the disc, randomly from 52% -> 67% before I got an I/O Error about the condition of the disc. Aone discs were excellent, although only write at 4x sucessfully and passing verification on imgburn, if I burn at 6x or 8x with these discs I get I/O errors in the first layer when verifying even though they burn sucessfully. The other problem with the Aone discs was a very small amount of stuttering in the games, or random loading. I backed up my Gears of War original for example and I'd say about 3 or 4 times during the game it would stop and load for about 1-2 seconds then continue fine.
Think I'll stick with the Aone discs, they burn faster, have very minimal issues and burn nearly twice as fast as the Traxdata discs, although the Traxdata were easily the best out of the 3.

it works on a strange manner. sometimes i cannt boot the disk, it gives black screen with DIRTY DIS-error,
but sometime i am lucky to load the game)
as u can see i got some strange and contradictionary situation.
halo2 on maxell works better than on platinum.
but all other xbox1 games on platinum work good. strange, isn't it?
my question is:
what is the best single and dual layer disk for me (with plextor px-716a burner) to get my samsung ms25 fw 5.1 working with?

media: memorex 10 pack red package on sale at 20$canadian 2$/ea.
Disc ID: RITEK-D01-01
burner app: imgburn
in my opinion pioneer and imgburn are pretty good burning material no problem so far
burned 33 backups all fully working and no errors so far on the working dvd's
failed only 2 backups with a laser position error but i think it was me making to much vibration around the computer (i also had 5 other failed backups but for other reasons then media brand
)so 2 or 3 failed out of 40 thats good... and for reliability if kept in good condition i think there will be no problem !
media is carefully stored in 10 pack tower when not in use and everything has been really fine
I use those to keep the original in perfect condition to do another backup if needed but NEVER have i reburned a game cause the backup media was not working anymore !
bought 4 pack of 10 memorex on special at 20$ each pack on bestbuy.ca site (still on sale)
and next time i will try the fujifilm there 20$ canadian for a 15 pack on sale at futureshop.ca
1.5$/ea. pretty nice dealjust my 2 cents:
even if 1 or 2 backups fail out of a lot its way less iritating when you pay 1.5 dollars each coasters instead of 3$ or more that verbatim costs and theyre as as good for me so far
search for any deal on something other than bogus names brand dvd+r dl's and youll be very happy

I also burned a backup of my RainbowSix Vegas on a DVD-R DL from Verbatim on a LG GSA-E10L although it is strange since there are no reports of working DVD-R DL Backups it is working!! (actually it loads perfectly I loaded the first mission but I havent had time to play it more).
So does this mean that DVD-R DL disks work or is the game going to fail after a few levels (after passing the layer break)?? I don't know I posted a new thread asking some more experienced than me for an explanation. Lets hope someone will clarify it.
I have a Samsung ms28 and the disk was burned with imgburn 2.4x speed.

currently deciding on whether to get Verbatim (20 for $32) or Memorex (25 for $22)
Maybe someone can post the Quality of a Verbatim DVD+R DL with nero and I'll get the Memorex so we can compare stats.

I'll add mine so far..
I'm using CloneCD v5.2.9.1 & IMGBurn v2.2.0.0
I burn with a Pioneer 112D, Verbatim DVD+R DL (Stock 1.06 Firmware) @ 2.4x
@lunarx32: I burned Oblivion just with IMGBurn on above media, it seems to be long loading times too, must be normal..

Post by: ThaCrip on April 05, 2007, 09:29:00 PM
Burned @ 2.4x (next time im going to try 4x, read below)
Burning App = ImgBurn v2.3.0.0
XBox360 DVD-ROM Drive = Samsung MS28 with xtreme 5.2A firmware
Media = Verbatim 2.4x/6x rated media (media code "MKM 001" , made in singapore) bought from newegg.com
ETC
so far only backed up 1 game but it works good "so far" as the xbox360 appears to have no problems reading it from listening to the drive etc.
p.s. game seems to work good and "so far" the xbox360 dont have problems reading the disc but i ran a "disc quality check" with Kprobe on my lite-on 1673S burner (which is a good burner to test quality of a disc on) and the PIE errors where good til near the end of the disc then they peaked out at about 428 which i heard 280 is general max you want... and my PIF's are within safe/good ranges (3 or less at any spike in the test) though and i heard those are more important than the PIE's errors... so i guess ill just have to throughly play the game and hopefully once it gets to late into the disc the reading will be good but if i do have problems it's going to be late in the second layer since the first layer was flawless basically.
so until i test this section out i cant say the game works 100percent but as of now it appears good.
also, from reading the forums over at club.cdfreaks.com (there basically experts in burning cd/dvd media in general) it appears that with my drive ill get noticeably better burns @ 4x from looking at disc quality scans in there forums on the same drive/media as me.... so my next game backup im going to burn @ 4x and see what happends
just posted this cause im sure some people will want to know this info

moved to your other thread that was basically asking the samething, no cross posting
and in fact for this thread it is to report compatibility not to ask questions.

why not to pin-up or making sticky this thread? because this is important thread, like the one about hitachi compatibility
It already is. If you look in the Backup FAQ pinned topic there is a direct link to this thread

Burner Plextor PX-740a mfg fw 1.02
App imgburn
Media VERBATIM DVD+R DL
Method ISO buster
Speed 4x working
at first i didnt know about the quality of the discs everything else vs. verbatim so i bought a 25 pack of memorex dvd+r dl. that was a big mistake
they burned at a slow 2.4x max and worked at first but after a few boot attempts all 3 discs started to be hit and miss with putting a game in resulting in either it playing with no problem or refusing to start with a dirty disk error.
I picked up a spindle of verbatim's and so far so good, no problems

Speed: 6x

Coaster: 2
The first set of memorex I picked up 10 were coasters 5 were good, but this could have been because I was testing the burner with different firmware updates.
With the new settings one game would not complete while using XBC to burn the game. When I changed to IMG burn it went through fine, but a different game wouldn't finish with IMG burn so I had to use XBC.
Hope this information helps someone.
