Mini CD-R

Category: Product Discussionadmin @ 11:15 pm

mini  cd-r

Im always being asked ” Will the Mini CD-R on your site work in my camera? ” The answer is Yes! these will work in camera’s that take mini cd-r media. Some camera’s will only work with mini CD-RW, in that case then they would not work.

Why is it so confusing?
There are several different cameras out there that use mini cd-r. Some spec for a 156MB disc, another for a 138MB disc. ( and there are others ) Then you go and finally find some blank mini cd-r and they say they are 193MB to 210MB. Now What? Well basicly the MB that the camera manufacturer gives you is the total space that is actually used for your video and pictures. Before the camera can work it writes a “lead in” to the disc and when you are done with it, it writes a “lead out” or as some call it “to finalize the disc. This is why the number never match. So go ahead and save yourself some of your hard earned money and purchase the different brands of mini cd-r that are out on the market.

What do I use to burn a mini cd-r?
you can burn a mini cd-r in any cd burner that is tray fed. ( an actual tray comes out of the burner that you lay your disc in )
you can NOT record a mini cdr in a slot fed burner.

Types Of Mini CD-R
There are 5 mini CD-R surfaces available. First one is the regular shiny silver. This one can be thermal printed or you can put paper labels on them. Second and Third types are inkjet printable. The inkjet printable are available in white and silver. Fourth would be a white thermal mini CD-R. Its surface is specially designed for thermal ribbon printers. And fifth would be the retail / branded media. These typically have been silk screen printed with the manufacturers logo and usually would have some lines for you to write text.

Just a quick note. The Shop By Brand is now complete. On the left hand side of the page under ” Our Products ” and ” Inkjets / Ribbons ” you will see the Shop By Brand section. In there you will find all the different brands that we currently sell. clicking on a brand name will take you to a new page that will list all the available products from that manufacturer.

We are currently working on a shop by brand navigation column. When completed you will be able to simply click on your favorite brand ( Ritek, Verbatim, Prodisc…. ) and all the products from that manufacturer will appear on one page. When the page appears it will also be broken down into categories ( CD-R, DVD+R… ect )This should make it easier for those who wish to find a certain name brand of product.

New Home Page !

Category: Main Categoriesadmin @ 10:28 pm

Today I added a couple of buttons on the “Home” page. If you have a bookmark to the site it would be a good idea to have it pointed directly to the home page. Ok here is what was added:

New Items Button
This is the new blue “new items” button on top of the page. This will take you to a new page were you will find all the latest and new items that we selling. It would be a good idea to always check this page out before ordering, you never know you just might find something new and at a great price.

Sale Items Button
This one is also located at the top of the page right next to the New Items button. Its big, its red, you really can’t miss it. Here i wanted to make it easy for everyone to see all the items we currently have on sale. This is another page I would recommend to check often as we will be adding and removing items all time here.

Blog Link
Ok, I’m guessing that if you are reading this you already found the blog button. If you want to see what is going on with the site then this is the place to visit. Please if you have time, I would encourage everyone to post here. This will be a great tool to make your shopping experience even better. If you have any suggestions tell us!
