Why Samsung dude? It's not a good optical drive..

With 4X it takes 12-13 mins.
With 8X it may take some 4-5 mins.

4x takes 15 minutes. 8X takes 10 minutes and 2x takes 30 minutes. 8X is not twice as fast as 4x because the writer writes half the disk @ 4-6x. 16x takes 6 minutes. But 2x and 4x are close to the speeds because they write to the disk @ 2x and 4x.
You can hack it to change this switching points to make your burns faster to save a minute to two here and there on some drives.


they did a comparision between DRU800, LG4163B, PX716A,BENQ1625, Samsung H552 and liteon 1693S.

The Sony DRU-800A put a maximum of only 2 PIF errors on the DVD+R, which is a ridiculously low number. The average was also only 0.05, putting it on the crowned spot as far as write quality is concerned. The Lite-On 1673S that took 10 seconds lesser to burn put a maximum of 114 PIF errors at an average of 0.09, which doesn't really mean the end of the world, but still doesn't justify the 10 second time difference. The Sony takes 10 seconds longer, but puts a whole lot less errors.

Depending on the media used the times will vary. +R writing is almost a minute faster than -R.

There are basicly 4 different DVD Sizes,

DVD-5, holds around 4 700 000 000 bytes and that is 4.37 computer GB where 1 kbyte is 1024 bytes* . DVD+R/DVD+RW and DVD-R/DVD-RW supports this format. Also called Single Sided Single Layered. This is the most common DVD Media, often called 4.7 GB Media.

DVD-10, holds around 9 400 000 000 bytes and that is 8.75 computer GB. DVD+R/DVD+RW and DVD-R/DVD-RW supports this format. Also called Double Sided Single Layered.

DVD-9, holds around 8 540 000 000 bytes and that is 7.95 computer GB. DVD+R supports this format. Also called Single Sided Dual Layered. This media is called DVD-R9, DVD-R DL, DVD+R9, DVD+R DL or 8.5 GB Media.

DVD-18, holds around 17 080 000 000 bytes and that is 15.9 computer GB. DVD+R supports this format. Also called Double Sided Dual Layered.

* In the computer world is 1 KB data = 1024 bytes so 4 700 000 000 bytes / 1024 = 4 589 843KB / 1024 = 4482MB / 1024 = 4.37GB. See section 3.3 in the DVDDemystified FAQ here.


DVD+R/DVD+RW/DVD+R DL and DVD-R/DVD-RW exact sizes
DVD-R/DVD-RW = 4 706 074 624 bytes ( 4488 MB )
DVD+R/DVD+RW = 4 700 372 992 bytes ( 4482 MB )
DVD+R DL = 8 547 993 600 bytes ( 8152 MB )

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

Single Layer (4.7GB) read speeds
1x read speed is 1.321MB/s = ~56 minutes
6x CAV (avg. ~4x) read speed is max 7.93MB/s = ~14 minutes
8x CAV (avg. ~6x) read speed is max 10.57MB/s = ~10 minutes
12x CAV (avg. ~8x) read speed is max 15.85MB/s = ~7 minutes
16x CAV (avg. ~12x) read speed is max 21.13MB/s = ~5 minutes

* write speed time and read speed time is not the same because writing requires some extra steps and also does the faster writing above 6x usually use lower write speeds for some parts of the dvd. 4x DVD speed = 36x CD speed. See section 4.2 in the DVDDemystified FAQ here.

I was able to find 4x RW and 8X -R's... India manufacturers significant quantities of DVD media but for export markets only... And it has a bad rep as some of the worst media anyway.. So guess we are better off buying media from other countries.

@anispace-DVD-ROM drives spin the disc a lot slower than their CD-ROM counterparts. However, since the data is packed much closer together on DVD discs, the throughput is substantially better than a CD-ROM drive at equivalent spin speed. While a 1x CD-ROM drive has a maximum data rate of only 150 KBps, a 1x DVD-ROM drive can transfer data at 1,250 KBps, which is just over the speed of an 8x CD-ROM drive. Source-pctechguide
