Here's a reply I got from Ritek.
__________________________________________________________
According to your input information :
There are many kinds of production be OEM by Ritek .
It is not easy to know that is what type of disk just by printing label on
the surface .
About how to identify the manufactured code of disc ,I have one method for
reference to you .
You can find the disc inside information to identify the disc source .
How to find the disc information ? You can use the "Ahead Nero" software
(it is a burn software) .
The Nero CD-DVD speed of Nero inside should measure disc information .
You can refer to the following steps :
Open "Ahead Nero" software -->Nero Toolkit -->Nero CD-DVD Speed -->Extra
--> Disc Info.
Follows the above , you should find the information from the disc inside .
In addition, Ritek?Ridata?Traxdada are our own brand.
Please set yout mind at ease on use.
The above message is for your reference.
If you have any other further question, please don't hesitate to connect
with us.
Best Regards .
