Unreliable
I have a double sided DVD writer and this product was un-writable on my system. Tossed the whole lot away.

Worst in the Industry
I can write Verbatim, Phillips, or HP dual layer disks all day long on my Plextor. These disks have an 80% failure rate. Memorex customer service is terrible. Its a step back in time to ancient 3rd world ignorance. You get transferred to Guatemala where the slaves are trained to blame your drive. When I demanded to speak to a supervisor, I got a man yelling at me with a thick Nigerian accent. This is not your typical outsourced customer service. I still can't believe that a company with a name this big would put such people between the company and the customers. Its worth a call to experience it yourself.
They told me that if the maximum write speed of a disk is 8x, then I must have an 8x drive. Thats wrong and its the opposite of what their website says. Even if I could get one of these disks to finish a write job, I would never trust it with my data.

So far I've burned almost half of these and they all burned fine using Toast 8 & 9 for mac. I say yet cause theres some left and you never know.

No Good
These disks are the worst. Don't waste your money. I recorded 3.5 hours of material on one and it failed when it was being finalized. I re-recorded on a fresh disk and the second one failed as well. Then I tried a third time on a DVD+R DL from another manufacturer, and it worked flawlessly.
To be fair, I have used Memorex DVD+R single layer disks many times and they have worked just fine. Just beware of the DL.

No. From a Mac user.
For a long time, Memorex was the only Double Layer option for me because of price. I never really had a hard time with the 2X discs burning on the Pioneer burners (DVR-110D and 111D) in most Macs. The new 8X discs are a completely different story. I've lost at least half of the discs. I switched from DragonBurn to Toast8, with improved results for a few burns, but then more "sense errors" a quarter to halfway through the burn. The reality is Memorex DL media is not preferred media for the Pioneer drives. It was never a problem till this new 8X batch. Buy at your own risk!
