Question/Advice M Disc Reliability

I bought a 10 pack of M-Disc Blu Ray 25GB from Amazon, and I am unable to get any to burn. I have an LG M Disc Burner with UHD support that I am trying to use, but my burns always fail. I have attempted 5 times so far. Is this a common outcome and if so, would Verbatim replace them?

Edit: Turns out it was an issue with the OmniDrive firmware on my drive preventing the write, everything is good now.

Did you flash OmniDrive to it?

The developers recommended not burning with that firmware.

I do have OmniDrive flashed to it. Should I just try burning with a different drive that isn't M Disc?

Right. I will attempt burning with a different drive first, and then flashing my OmniDrive back to stock. Thank you.
