FAQs
What is the difference between DVD+R and DVD-R?
DVD+R and DVD-R are two competing recordable DVD formats. While most modern drives support both, compatibility can sometimes vary, especially with older devices. This guide pertains specifically to the DVD+R format.
Can I erase and rewrite data on these discs?
No, these are DVD+R (recordable) discs, meaning they can be written to only once. They are not rewritable (DVD+RW) discs.
What is the maximum recording speed for these discs?
These Maxell DVD+R discs are rated for a maximum recording speed of 16x. However, always use the speed recommended by your burning software or drive for best results.
How long will data last on these discs?
The archival life of optical media can vary depending on storage conditions. Under optimal conditions (cool, dark, dry), data can last for many years. Maxell is known for quality media, but regular backups are always recommended for critical data.
What kind of marker should I use to write on the disc?
It is recommended to use a soft-tipped CD/DVD marker pen. Avoid using ballpoint pens or abrasive materials, as they can damage the disc surface.
How much data can fit on one disc?
Each Maxell DVD+R disc has a native capacity of 4.7 GB, which can typically hold about 120 minutes of standard-definition video or a large number of digital photos and documents.
Troubleshooting
Disc not recognized by recorder/drive
Ensure the disc is inserted correctly and that the drive supports the DVD+R format. Try a different disc to rule out a faulty disc. Clean the drive's laser lens.
Recording errors or failed burns
Lower the recording speed in your burning software. Ensure the drive's firmware is up-to-date. Check for adequate free space on your computer's hard drive for the temporary files. Avoid using the computer for intensive tasks during recording.
Playback issues on DVD player
Verify the DVD player supports the DVD+R format. Ensure the disc was finalized correctly after recording. Clean the DVD player's laser lens. Try playing the disc on a different player or computer drive.
Scratched or unreadable disc
Handle discs carefully by the edges. Store discs in protective cases. Minor scratches can sometimes be cleaned with a soft cloth, but deep scratches may render the disc unreadable.

- Writable surface for easy labeling.

- Single-use recordable media (cannot be erased and rewritten).

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: No specific setup is required for the discs themselves. Ensure your computer or DVD recorder has a functional DVD+R drive.
Compatibility: These DVD+R discs are compatible with most DVD recorders and computer drives that support the DVD+R format and 16x recording speeds. Recorded discs can typically be played back on most DVD players and DVD-ROM drives.
Care: Store discs in their jewel cases to protect the surface from scratches and dust. Avoid exposing discs to direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, or high humidity. Handle discs by the edges or the center hole to prevent fingerprints and smudges on the recording surface. Use a soft, lint-free cloth for cleaning, wiping from the center outwards.
