Yes it is an issue between burners.

is this problem reversible? ie, neither can read the other?
this is may be due to track alignment between to drives.
The reason that I a doing that is the network, good compare with
bad!
Even if the DVD is checked, it does not mean that it is going to work!

it may be better if you consider using a boot/install usb flash memory.
over the past year, i have moved away from optical as i find usb the way
to go. i still use dvd to archiving.
"unetbootlin" and "live usb creator" are great programs to use.

Philips, Imation, Sony?

nothing wrong with those names. maybe age, but not names.
same applies to blanks. i have used memorex for years and their optical
disk are as good as their magnet tapes that i have used from mid 60's.
"Is it live, or is it Memorex?" a very true slogan. ;-)

blanks
What does it mean?
.
thru out my years of playing with computers, i have read many articles on
what lead up to the current day optical disk and drives from their first
concept during early 70's when i built my first computer, an s100 system.
there has been little change from original, but a whole lot of improvement.
instead of trying to explain, i believe it would be easier to understand if
you rely on the informative from wikipedia.org as it is too much to try to
condense in a post.
