Product Information

Full details

This pack of 50 HP CD-R discs is ideal for users needing reliable storage for music, data, or backups. The key benefit is their high-quality, non-rewritable format with a fast 52x write speed and ample 700MB capacity. A caveat is that these are CD-R discs, meaning data can only be written once.

FAQs

What is the difference between CD-R and CD-RW?

CD-R (Recordable) discs can be written to only once, after which the data is permanent. CD-RW (ReWritable) discs can be erased and rewritten multiple times.

How long can I store data on these discs?

When stored properly in a cool, dry place away from light, data on CD-R discs can typically last for decades, though actual longevity can vary.

Can I use these discs to play music on any CD player?

Most standard audio CD players can play music burned onto these CD-R discs, especially if recorded in standard audio formats (like Red Book audio).

What does '52x write speed' mean?

The 'x' speed indicates how quickly data can be written to the disc. 52x is a relatively fast speed for CD-R, allowing for quick burning of content.

How many songs can fit on one disc?

A 700MB disc can typically hold about 150 songs in MP3 format (at 128 kbps) or around 17-20 albums in uncompressed audio format (WAV or AIFF).

Is this product rewritable?

No, these are CD-R discs, meaning they are for one-time recording only and are not rewritable.

Troubleshooting

Disc not recognized by drive

Ensure the disc is inserted correctly, with the label side up. Try cleaning the drive's laser lens. Test with another disc to rule out a faulty disc.

Burning errors or failed writes

Close all other applications that may be using system resources. Ensure the burning software is up-to-date. Check if the drive is clean and functioning properly. Try a slower write speed.

Read errors after burning

Verify the integrity of the data before burning. Handle the disc carefully to avoid scratches. Ensure the reading drive is clean and compatible.

Pros and Cons

Pros

High storage capacity for data and audio.
Fast 52x write speed for efficient burning.
Reliable HP brand quality.
Permanent, non-rewritable format suitable for archiving.
Bulk pack of 50 discs offers good value.

Cons

Data cannot be erased or re-recorded (CD-R limitation).
Not suitable for repeated data updates.
Requires a compatible CD-R drive for writing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: No setup is required for the discs themselves. Simply insert a disc into a compatible CD/DVD burner drive in your computer or audio device. Ensure your burning software is configured correctly for CD-R media.

Compatibility: These are standard 120mm CD-R discs. They are compatible with most CD/DVD-R drives for writing and most CD players or computer drives for reading.

Care:

Handle discs by the edges or the center hole to avoid fingerprints or smudges on the recording surface.
Store discs in their original cakebox or a protective CD case when not in use.
Keep discs away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and humidity.
Avoid placing stickers or writing on the label side of the disc, as this can cause imbalance.
