DVD+R Testing





Our first DVD tests are with DVD+R disks. The BENQ drive is on average a whopping 20% faster! The ASUS access times are an average of 20 ms. lower which means that your data will be found faster which is great. What is amazing to see is that the ASUS CPU usage is so much lower than the BENQ drive....we're looking at almost 60% less here. The burst rate on the ASUS was 59 MB/s compared to a measily 24 MB/s on the BENQ. Did you notice how the BENQ drive switched it's writing type over to P-CAV? We are still researching as to why that happened but it also happened while running a test on the blank DVD-R.
