Manufacturer's Warning Label: This warning is directly quoted from the back of the package.

Warning: This DVD-RW disc is designed for recording, erasing and re-recording in "1X and 2X" write speed compatible DVD-RW drives and video recorders. Use of this disc with some "1X" write speed DVD-RW drives and/or recorders may cause the drive to become unresponsive, resulting in permanent damage to the drive and/or recorder and this disc. Before using this disc in "1X" DVD-RW drives and/or recorders please visit http:/www.dvdhs.com or contact your hardware manufacturer directly for information regarding free hardware updates to correct this problem. Use of this DVD-RW disc in "1X" write speed DVD-RW drives and/or recorders without obtaining the free hardware update voids the warranty for this DVD-RW disc. Maxell expressly disclaims any liability for all damage and harm resulting from such use, including, but not limited to, damage and harm to hardware or loss of data."
