Now that my bad burn s are over, I discovered that my drive reads DVD+R really slowly. These DVD+R’s are burned on the same drive as I am reading from (716A) with Verbatim 8x MCC3 discs, and has PI max at 100. Most of them are below 20.
It takes about 30+ minute to transfer a 4.3GB of data split evenly on 25 files. What gives… is this normal?
Could have sworn that it read these discs faster in the past, around 10 min.
My system is:
ECS K7S5A Pro
AMD XP 1800+
512 MB RAM
Windows 2K SP4
Plextor 716A
Any response would be much appreciated.
