MY HARDWARE:
G3 Macintosh, external FireWire Que! Fire 12x/10x/32x burner (Teac
mechanism)

MY SOFTWARE:
Roxio Toast 5 Titanium 5.1.2
Dantz Retrospect Express 4.3C


----------------------------

I'm wondering what CD-RW media would be best to use in my drive for things
like data backup, and where I could find a good bargain on them. Any ideas?
It would most likely be a mail-order purchase.

I was thinking about getting brand-name (Memorex? Imation?) 10x RW media in
a small 10-pack or 25-spindle to start with.

I had a problem when I burned some files onto some Memorex 4x 700 MB CD-RWs,
but that was with an earlier version of Toast 5 Titanium at "max" 4x speed.
Also: Retrospect Express 4.3C backup software didn't seem to work with the
Teac mechainsm. (I've tried burning some data CD-R's and audio CD-R's with
no problem at about 6x-8x on Memorex 16x 700MB CD-R media.)
