Actual max burn rate of Verbatim 96577? Is this erroneous advertising or can these discs really be burned faster?

actually you can burn faster if your DVD writer supports it. I can burn at 6x on my Pioneer drive.

I highly recommend 4x speed for burning xbox games with these discs. it all varys on your burner as well cause these have the capability to burn 8x but never do 8x or it will cause errors in burning the disc Thanks, AUSTIN

Well, it all depends on the video quality you want in your project. But, yes, at the video quality a single-layer disc allows you 120 minutes, a dual layer will allow you double the capacity. Roughly. The disc requires some space for administrative data, so the 8.5Gb rating doesn't refer to the amount you can get onto the disc. Your media/burning app should be able to tell you how much space available vs. required when you're burning.

The 25 GB discs from Verbatim does not have any label on it. It has completely white sticker and seems that they bought it from some other vendor and put their paper label on the box but they work perfectly. For the price one cannot complain at all.

I'm with Eric. Two standard discs are cheaper than one DL disc, and more reliable. The only reason to use a DL disc is if you have a single chunk of data bigger than 4.7GB that has to go on one disc. In any event, please don't buy this brand -- they're unreliable, in my painful experience.

The Taiyo Yuden that I received seemed to be genuine. 200 out of 200 were good. I had problems with Verbatim a couple of times in the past with about 30-50% being bad discs with burn errors. Those Verbatim had been bought locally. I usually have 99.99% good with Verbatim. That was why I tried the Taiyo Yuden. I now suspect that the bad Verbatim discs where knockoffs and not genuine.

Unfortunately non-software that I have can test it and the hardware itself does not seems to be different physically but I will recommend it as it works good for burning at 6x and the time was 16 min as expected for this device class and if an optical go up from 16x then you maybe need SATA3 but currently it seems does not applies [16 576 Mbit/s 72 MB/s] because SATA 2 3Gb/s is good up to ~ 290MB/s read and write vs. 6Gb/s is good up to ~ 600mb/s read / write.

Actually I'm not an expert either. I did not find any Blu-Ray drives that claimed speeds higher than 16x, and I have not actually seen any discs from name-brand manufacturers rated higher than 6x. In my usage data integrity is more important than speed anyway, and I put this drive through some stringent tests with no errors.

You must make sure that the blank DVD is at least as long as what you are trying to record. The same is true with CD's. If the blank isn't long enough, it will not record anything. Check with the blank DVD suppliers to see what is available. I know that Verbatim makes a 120 minute DVD+RW., and I have recorded successfully with it.

An addition to my answer: the CD-R Music discs that I have used are very thin and not that durable. If you have access to a computer, I recommend purchasing this product and using the computer to burn audio CDs. Like JMB, I have left these discs in my car and they continue working without a hitch. Can't say that for the Verbatim brand CD-R Music discs that I have used before.

It may be an application issue. I had a similar problem with 12X BD-R discs where each time I burned it became a coaster. I had to manually slow the burn speed to 6X (instead of max) to match my burner and everything worked after that (no more coasters). The application I'm using is Nero Platinum 2014 with Windows 8.1 Professional.

first of all i dont see sense of wiriting slower, most of all modern players have perfect compatibility playing cd-r discs no matter the speed they was burn it, why you are interested in slower speeds than 16x? may you thinking slower speed improve better results and better playback of the disc?, well if this is your matter, plaxtors drives writes great and perfect even at the maximum speeds!,with perfect results and taiyo discs dont need to burn slower than 16 x because they may be made to writes from 16x and over w perfect playbacks, so if you are getting trouble playing discs try using another software like roxio, or try play the discs in another player. first of all i dont see sense of wiriting slower, most of all modern players have perfect compatibility playing cd-r discs no matter the speed they was burn it, why you are interested in slower speeds than 16x? may you thinking slower speed improve better results and better playback of the disc?, well if this is your matter, plaxtors drives writes great and perfect even at the maximum speeds!,with perfect results and taiyo discs dont need to burn slower than 16 x because they may be made to writes from 16x and over w perfect playbacks, so if you are getting trouble playing discs try using... » Read More first of all i dont see sense of wiriting slower, most of all modern players have perfect compatibility playing cd-r discs no matter the speed they was burn it, why you are interested in slower speeds than 16x? may you thinking slower speed improve better results and better playback of the disc?, well if this is your matter, plaxtors drives writes great and perfect even at the maximum speeds!,with perfect results and taiyo discs dont need to burn slower than 16 x because they may be made to writes from 16x and over w perfect playbacks, so if you are getting trouble playing discs try using another software like roxio, or try play the discs in another player. « Show Less

As for the highest speed for CD burning, both the burner and burning software may have to support that specific speed. However, as far as I know, for the lowest speed burning, there is no limit on the burner and you can select a typical low speed that you want on your burning software. I also usually burn important CDs with equal or less than 8 speed and sometimes 4 and even 2. I am currently using the Nero Burning ROM software and PX-891SAW and had no problem in burning CDs below 8 speed. It is likely that the '16X' speed written on the Taiyo Yuden blank CD may be the recommended fastest speed for burning and not the lowest speed.
