Re: Fwd: 7042-C07 HMC DVD-RAM question

getting that  case off  gave a  few interesting moments
 while the cartridge is not  exactly right spec [4.7 GB (total) dual 
sided no-cartridge], these buggers are  hard to find.
Companies  like Maxell have stopped manufacturing them  and if  you 
want 4.7  dual sided you must take 9.4 total.

IBM must  have  full DVD-RAM media specs posted  some place, but be 
dipped if I could  find them.
This  also  begs the  question "Have  4.7 GB DVD-RAM single sided 
worked for anyone?"
