hey, i also have the same drive......to burn moserbaer 4.7gb at 8x, it takes 20-30 mins......y is this??? and DMA fails whenever i enable itkalpik said:^^ How do you people live with 50-60 minutes to burn a DVD! There is definately something wrong with your drives! Check if DMA is enabled! It should take somewhere around 6 minutes to burn @ 16x. My BenQ DW 1650 takes a little under 6 minutes to burn a full DVD.
@vinyas: 5 minutes is impossible (unless you have an 18x writer). You must not have burned a *full* DVD.
