Samsung here too... hehehe

Currently using Princo DVD-R - no coasters yet

Was using MaxMax DVD-R but the quality drop and now have a set of MaxMax Coasters. (currently selling on Ebay as a collectors item... hahaha)

Have been able to read off most generic CD-R

All CD-RW i have tried all worked.

Verbatim DVD-RW - Didn't work Sad

I've been using the Memorex DVD+R's, and I recently updated my bios and used a generic no name bulk CDR.

Well ive got the SAMSUNG XBOX DVDROM so mine plays CDR's perfect but if you burn games to cdr they are very slow to load.

Mine seems to play anything i throw at it except for:
PIONEER DVD-RW.. I havent tested any other DVD-RW's but im sure they will work..
