Advantages: No coasters. Still readable after several years.

Disadvantages: 'High-Speed' name is a bit of a gimmick

I have a box of Memorex CD-RWs that I've been using for several years, so I'm in a good position to give this brand a rating.

None of my Memorex discs have turned into coasters. Discs that I've burnt several years ago are still perfectly readable. And that's good because it's a major pro of rewritable media: being able to use it again and again if things change or you no longer have use for something.

I've not used the High Speed discs in particular. It seems to be a bit of a gimmick, as the only benefit is the ability to burn at 12x. Personally, I would not burn at 12x anyhow because it means the data is more likely to be corrupted. And it does not save that much time.

Overall, Memorex is a quality brand that I always trust. In fact, I've just bought a box of 25 DVD-RWs from Amazon, so I'll let you know how they go!

Summary: The brand that I would always choose when it comes to optical media.
