Each disc is manufactured using proprietary unique Dual Reflective Layers (DRL) to maximize both compatibility and longevity. Verbatim’s proprietary dual reflective technology is comprised of a silver layer for broad compatibility and a gold layer for long archival life. This feature provides a low initial error rate, important for long archival life, and the same drive read/write compatibility as standard silver-only discs. These discs are built to last as long as 100 years. The combination of Verbatim’s revolutionary DRL technology, high quality stamper and superior quality standards enables Verbatim UltraLife archival-grade CD-R discs to deliver new levels in longevity and performance without sacrificing compatibility. Review: Reasonably priced durable product for archival storage of digital data. - Gold is the way to go, if you value your portfolio. The cloud could become inaccessible any time, and even the most professionally vetted hard drives eventually crash, but a working professional CD player/burner and these DVDs can preserve your archive for many years. My personal experience only extends to 20 years, but that's a lot with writable, portable media. Don't buy a burner for less than $125. Look among the equipment that video and sound studios are buying. Review: Good quality blank CDs - Good quality blank CDs. I use them to burn music CDs to listen to my favorite music in my car in high fidelity that you can't get from radio or cassette. The plain unlabeled surface lets me write on the label side of the disk without writing over other stuff. If you really want something to last for a really loooooong time, you need M-discs (and a special CD drive that can burn them), but these are still better quality and longer lasting than standard blank CDs. ## Features - 50 UltraLife Gold Archival discs featuring proprietary dual reflective layers; OEM drive certified - Gold layer maximizes disc lifetime, protecting data from corrosion while silver layer provides high reflectivity and broad read/write compatibility - Blazing drive speeds allow for 80 min files to record in less than 2 minutes - 700MB allows you to store up to 225 photos - Verbatim has been a leader in data storage technology since 1969, and guarantees this product with a limited lifetime warranty and technical support ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000SDYXNO | | Best Sellers Rank | #25 in Blank CD-R Discs | | Brand | Verbatim | | Built-In Media | Verbatim CD-R optical disc(50) | | Color | Information not Available | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 159 Reviews | | Format | CD | | Item Weight | 1.9 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Verbatim | | Media Speed | 40x | | Memory Storage Capacity | 700 MB | | Mfr Part Number | 96159 | | Model Number | 96159 | | Recording Capacity | 80 Minutes | | UPC | 023942961598 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Limited lifetime warranty | | Write Speed | 40x | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Verbatim - **Color:** Information not Available - **Item Weight:** 1.9 Pounds - **Memory Storage Capacity:** 700 MB - **Format:** CD ## Images ![Archival CD-R - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/713fCOM1PBL.jpg) ![Archival CD-R - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61b0i1627OL.jpg) ![Archival CD-R - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81P53ro4p8L.jpg) ![Archival CD-R - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41GboGN+CqL.jpg) ![Archival CD-R - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51BZpsroBnL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reasonably priced durable product for archival storage of digital data. *by E***N on September 19, 2025* Gold is the way to go, if you value your portfolio.

Buy the 5 packs instead. *by N***N on January 30, 2026* I bought a 5 pack of these discs (the individually boxed ones in jewel cases) and they were extremely high quality, so I decided to buy the 50 spindle. The spindle came damaged. All 4 tabs were broken off, the top 3 discs (and a few other random ones I checked deeper in the spindle) had visible surface blemishes in the hard coat layer which caused a massive spike of thousands of C1 errors on the burn I tried. By comparison the discs in the 5 pack had 150-200 C1 errors total for the entire burn and were fantastic quality. The burn quality was worse than the $20/50 spindle of ultralife+ discs I bought at 1/5th the cost. I think they must be cherry picking the best discs off the line and diverting them to the 5 packs and throwing the rest of the sub par discs into these spindles. Either that or i just got a really, really bad batch. Oh, also the 5 pack discs actually have a protective film layer on them with branding, these spindle discs are 100% blank on top so they are less protected. For discs intended for archival purposes I honestly expect MUCH higher quality than what was on display here. At $2/disc they should all be perfect and not have surface blemishes and other such things. I will be buying more of the 5 packs but I won't be buying these spindles again. ## Frequently Bought Together - Verbatim CD-R 700MB 52X UltraLife Gold Archival Grade - Branded Surface & Hard Coat - 50pk Spindle - Verbatim DVD-R 4.7GB 16X UltraLife Gold Archival Grade - Branded Surface and Hard Coat - 50pk Spindle - Verbatim CD DVD Blu-Ray Clear Slim Jewel Cases, 5.2 mm – 25 Pack --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/6656013-archival-cd-r](https://www.desertcart.be/products/6656013-archival-cd-r) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-11*
