Question about Verbatim Simline CD / DVD ReWriter USB-C

The original Verbatim CD discs for burning do not work for me, the ones I had before worked and they are 10 years old.

This can be due to several factors, here are the most common causes:

1.incompatible blank batch:
Modern Verbatim blanks (especially "AZO" or "Life Series") are often produced by different manufacturers - not all batches work equally well with every burner.

2. outdated firmware of the burner:
The Verbatim Simline ReWriter may not be able to cope optimally with newer blank formulas -> no clean writing process. A firmware update is usually not possible as the device is Plug&Play.

3. burning software / writing speed not adjusted:
-> Try to reduce the burning speed manually to 4x or 8x. Many blanks fail at "Max Speed".

4. USB-C port/hub causes error:
-> If connected via USB hub, test directly on the main connection of the PC.

Solutions:
- Test other blank discs (e.g. from Taiyo Yuden, Sony, or older Verbatim from the "DataLife Plus" series).
- Check burning software (e.g. ImgBurn, CDBurnerXP, Nero).
- Reduce write speed to 4x or 8x.
- Test directly on the USB-C port, without a hub or adapter.
- Alternatively: test an external burner from LG or Pioneer, these often have higher compatibility with modern media.
