Disc: Taiyo Yuden YUDEN000 T03 000 (00h) (DVD+R)

Burner: HL-DT-ST DVD-RAM GSA-H55L 1.00

Writing - 4X (3.97X Average) in 15:01

Reading (LiteOn LH-20A1P)

The reading speed drops down to around 4X just around the half way point, and doesn't go any higher that 6X at the end. We then read the disc with the LG drive, resulting in a smooth graph where the maximum speed reached 16X.

The same problem here as well. When we then read the disc with the LG drive, it produced a much smoother graph but this time, there were some glitches near the end.

Reading (LiteOn LH-20A1P)

Very slow reading speed which only reached a maximum of 6X. This is worrying, but lets see how the disc does with the LG drive.

As smooth as it gets.

Reading (LiteOn LH-20A1P)

Surprisingly, the reading speed reached its maximum value with some ups and down near the end of the reading session. Let's try it now with the LG drive as well, so that we will have a full complement of reading from both drives with the disc on this page.
