That sounds nice, the max I've ever burnt DVD's is 8x I think, and that's only if I know I'm using good media!

Do 16x rated discs cost much extra? (sorry about the thread hijack by the way Sepu :P )

eheh don't worry :)
I always buy 16x DVDs, and usually I never had problems in my trades with Bad Sectors if I burn at 16x speed :thumbs-up:

Just in these days finally some of these problems appeared ;)

About the price, I think it's pretty the same...
