- Writing Performance

The maximum supported speed is 16X CAV for both DVD+R and DVD-R formats. For the DVD+RW the speed is 8X while for the DVD-RW 6X CLV.

By using Nero CD-DVD Speed with DVD-R and DVD+R media, we are able to see the writing strategy of the drive for both formats at 16X burning speed.

16X DVD+R Single Layer writing

The drive completed successful DVD+R writing at 16X in 6:08mins. The test started at 6.64X, reached a maximum writing speed of 15.91X and reported an average speed of 11.88X.

16X DVD-R Single Layer writing

The drive completed successful DVD-R writing at 16X in 5:30mins. The test started at 6.69X, reached a maximum writing speed of 15.95X and reported an average speed of 11.93X.
