- Media Info (Verbatim DVD-R SL 16x)
- Writing - 16X CAV (11.80X average) in 5:42 min
- Reading - 16X CAV (12.03X average)
- Writing Quality - iQB OMNI
The only small issue here is the low Beta value reported from the 40mm - 50mm area of the disc. This could be attributed to either the media properties (dye, dye thickness, groove geometry, metal minor layer) or the writing strategy of the drive. PI8 and jitter was low, POF was zero so there are not much to worry about here.
