nec DVD+RW ND1100A - what name brand media will work for 4..

Archived from groups: alt.sys.pc-clone.dell (More info?)

that is an old burner as compared to the newer nec, they were finicky about
what they would burn and so were a lot of other older burners. if you find a
media that works stick with it. you could upgrade to a 2500 a or a2 they
will use just about anything and they are less than 100 dollars
