No good place to put this question, so here goes...
I have an LG BD-RE WH14NS40 DVD wrtiter, and backups are getting too big for standard bluray disks, so I got some RiDATA BD-R DL blank media, and tried to do a 44 GB backup. First disk was rejected immediately, second one ran all the way through, but then was not readable. I'm trying to figure out if the dual-layer media are no good or the LG DVD writer is not able to write dual-layer reliably. It IS supposed to be capable of writing dual-layer. Looking around the internet, some people say to get a Pioneer writer and Verbatim blanks, but I'd like some guidance before spending significant money on it.
Thanks for any pointers.
