[. . . ] If discs from two different disc makers have the same write speed according to the labels , but actually have different write speed s , I i t is necessary to downgrade the write speed to ensure stable writing. Samsung' s Standards for Write Speed Restriction Standards 1 Write speed is downgraded for the sake of write stability , if high-speed discs available in the market have particularly bad properties data , or there are low-speed discs available under the same ID. Speed-restricted discs go through further examination and adjustments later. If high-speed discs are available under the same ID with as low-speed discs (speed restricted at present), the speed restriction is removed when the low-speed counterparts become no longer a una vailable in the market under the same ID. Standards 2 You may experience lower write quality in case if you use disc products by some disc makers which that are not registered with the product's firmware. [. . . ]
