Average read speed for a single layer Blu-ray RE disk x2 (by Sony) is .98x, this seems very slow, any idea why? Also the burn speed was only 1.2x, now I have a GGW-N10 on my other system and that one is suppose to be slower, but it burns the same disk a 1.88x so I'm concerned as to what is wrong. It starts at 1.57x and then just keeps getting slower as the disk continues to be read. Now at a .98x avg I have problems even playing a movie off the disk at times. The system is set to AHCI SATA mode, so I do not think that is the problem and the chipset is an Intel 631xESB chipset, the Hard drives x2 WD 150GB Raptors and x2 SATA DVD-RW drives do not have problems with speed, so I do not think it is a driver issue.
Even a pressed disk reads at only 1.12x speed, now I thought this was a 6x burner so the read should be at least 4x on a single layer blu-ray ROM disk right?
Any idea what could be wrong?, the speed is that reported by DVDINFO, also DVDINFO will not even allow be to perform a CRC check of the disk, burned in the same drive, though I think this is a program limitation.
