Making factory recovery disks on Lenovo laptop - Can I use DVD+R or Does it have to be DVD-R ?
Disk one has to be a cdr-r that's fine, done that and its worked before.
What about the set of DVDs Im going to sue next ?
Does it matter if they are + R or -R ?
Thanks,

I agree with Rindi, and I have made a USB recovery stick for my Lenovo X230 Laptop. That does work.

Conflicting options posted concerning DVD's
"DVD-R are licenced by the DVD Forum and thus usually more costly than DVD+R"
DVD-R are mass produced / more common and therefore cheaper @ about 16 cents each, they are very cheap.
DVD+R is not supported by some players so DVD-R is better in my opinion.
USB stick or USB external Hard Drive would be the better choice.

+R worked.
Its really annoying when a Lenovo Win 7 recovery dvd set bombs.
You only have one shot at it.
Anyway it worked fine.
