TraxData TXB-74 Black 74min 12x ATIP: 97m 16s 06f Disc Manufacturer: Unknown Disc Identification Code Reflective layer: Dye (Short strategy; e.g. Phthalocyanine) Media type: CD-Recordable Recording Speeds: min. unknown - max. unknown nominal Capacity: 702.83MB (79m 59s 74f / LBA: 359849) TraxData was recently aquired by RITEK and has been delivering only RITEK made discs for quite some time before that. Therefore it is safe to assume that this black beauty is RITEK made. Excellent disc, performing under any conditions. Funny thing is that it's sold as 74min, while it certainly takes 80 minutes. RECOMMENDED
Bad news. All the sudden I have one PSX disc that now gives me skipping video playback and music playback. This disc is only few months old TraxData black. It has no visual scratches, dirt or any other kind of damage. I don't think that I have exposed it to serious amount of sunlight. The PSX unit is still performing well with other games. I was able to backup the game from this disc and burned it to a T.Y./Sony cyanine disc and it runs perfectly. Until now my record with Ritek phthalocyanine has been 100% perfect and I have burned hundreds of them. This also my first PSX CD-R that is showing the signs of aging.
