HOW WE TEST: We test drives under Windows XP Home on a PC with a 1.67-GHz Athlon XP 2000+ CPU and 512MB of SDRAM, using media supplied by the vendor or by Verbatim. We test the drives with the format specified by the vendor at review time. Some vendors may change drive suppliers without changing their model designations; our results reflect the configuration tested at review time. Write speed is the time (in minutes:seconds) required to write 7.9GB to double-layer DVD+R, 4.35GB to DVD using the drive's bundled mastering software, to format a blank rewritable DVD, and copy 2.64GB of data to that disc.
