Bill,

If they write a CD its probably OK. You won't be able to mount it on 
Linux or Windows. Not sure what drive you have on the InfoServer150 or 
whatever, but you may also find some of the older SCSI drives won't read 
CDR media.

I always try and find the  ones with the shiniest surface. Not sure if 
it helps but those with a dark layer don't seem to work too well...

Dave
