How does the speed of a DVDR burner compare to that of a CDR burner?

Hello:

I was wondering: I know that my burner writes a 650mb CD-RW at 4x in approx. 20 min . How will the ?x rating compare with the DVDs? What is the 1x speed of a DVD equivalent to (in bytes per second)?

Thanks.

Mikhail

A 1X CDR is 150KBPS

A 1X DVDR is around 1.35MBPS

I know the 4x burners claim to write a dvd in 30 minutes. I believe the difference is the steady angular velocity burning that the dvd uses. CD's decrease with speed meaning the max speed accomplished on a 52x48x52 burner is 52x. But the average might only be like 8 or 10x. A dvd burning speed is constant. I don't know, I am conffusing myself here. I just know a 4.7GB dvd can be burned in about 30 minutes at 4x. The burner offered is 2x so I would guess close to an hour for burning time.




edit: thanks adam, you popsted while I was writing. Now it clears things up for me. ty

1X on a DVD is about an hour. My 4X external Firewire burns a DVD in about 15 minutes.
