The big man never ceases to amaze!

Well done TT, you deserve every little bit of that burner!!

stradale · 12-21-2004, 01:04 PM

Very very nice gift, Jabba! I'm sure TT will enjoy it. "Burn, motherfucker. Burn."

Like I said before, you deserve it, TT!

Wow, a Dual Layer DVD burner! I even didn't know they already existed. I'm apparently way behind on the new hot PC stuff

Congrats, TT. You'll certainly enjoy your Santa Jabba present a lot. Know you can copy DVD's without the need to shrink/compress the movie and deleting the extra's. What a gift!!!

Hehe, I can admit I download some porn every now and then, but as for DVDs, I'd rather buy originals as I always did

Thats awsome. No more complants about no disk space from you allowed.

TT · 12-21-2004, 09:11 PM

I just discovered it takes around 60 minutes to burn a full 4.7 GB DVD at 2.4x (didn't want to use the full speed (4x).. kinda different from the 7 minutes for a CDR

fishfreek · 12-21-2004, 09:18 PM

Ya. But still thats a load of data on that disk. I remember when HD's that where 4gig where BIG... haha

Yep but then a full CD doesnt hold 4.7 GB and the full speed of that writer is X 16 so it should burn a full 4.7 GB disc in under 10 mintues I think...and that would make your CD burner seem very very slow indeed if that only manages 700 MB in 7 minutes.

TT · 12-21-2004, 09:38 PM

Sure, but I still prefer to burn slower just to be sure it will be burned better

anyway well, the PC was created for such stuff, would be pointless if everything would take just a millisecond

Jabba · 12-21-2004, 09:41 PM

In fact I am still trying to find out how fast x 16 would burn a full disc...it could be under 5 mins !!! that is if you could get X16 media cheap enough that is.

Jabba · 12-21-2004, 09:45 PM

This is what I was looking for :

Single Layer(4.7GB) write speeds
1x (CLV) = about 58 minutes
2x (CLV) = about 29 minutes
2.4x (CLV) = about 24 minutes
4x (CLV) = about 14.5 minutes
6x (CLV/ZCLV) = about 10-12 minutes
8x (PCAV/ZCLV) = about 8-10 minutes
12x (PCAV/ZCLV) = about 6.5-7.5 minutes
16x (CAV/ZCLV) = about 6-7 minutes

Dual/Double Layer(8.5GB) write speeds
1x CLV = about 105 minutes
2.4x CLV = about 44 minutes
4x CLV = about 27 minutes

TT · 12-22-2004, 05:14 AM

Actually at 2.4x it took me more than 60 minutes to burn around 4.2 GB I think

12-22-2004, 05:57 AM

thats probably because you are stuck with usb1.0 controller vy the sounds of it TT

usb 1.0 = 1.5mb/s
usb 1.1 = 12mb/s
usb 2.0 = 480mb/s

TT · 12-22-2004, 06:04 AM

LOL yes that's it

and no, I don't need faster speed, so I won't buy a damn USB 2.0 card and open the PC case once more
