Again, the type/formula of disc also affects the readability of CD-R in vintage drives. The lighter and closer to silver the back is, the more likely it will work. This is why (from my experience anyway) CD-RW discs tend to not work in drives older than ~1998-2000 that otherwise read CD-R just fine …
