I knew it would slow down since its from the same drive but I guess I wasnt expecting the speed to be cut in half basically. I Guess i'll have to upgrade some of my drives soon!

The buffers remain empty throughout the whole process even though I see an occasional flash of the bar. These are the same drives that are being used as the destination drive. They are the fastest drives in my system currently. When I turn the buffer down to 1mb like it is now I see the speeds im getting. If it goes over 40mb they decrease.

Hi, Ive been trying to get a better speed from Imgburn when creating an iso image from a BD folder on the hard drive. Ive tried changing all the different settings in Imgburn such as the buffer settings and I/O type (ASPI/ASAPI) but I cant get any faster speeds than 180-200MB/sec average. Imgburn reports the max speed at the end of writing at 300mb/sec but I know my x4 WD 640gb blacks can do 400mb/sec writes in raid 0 on ICH10R. I have done all the disk benchmarks to see that myself such as ATTO and HDTune. I 18:28:21 Image Application Identifier: ImgBurn v2.5.0.0 I 18:28:21 Image Implementation Identifier: ImgBurn I 18:28:21 Image File System(s): UDF (2.50) I 18:28:21 Destination File: J:\HD Movies\stn.iso I 18:28:21 Destination Free Space: 2,023,732,678,656 Bytes (1,976,301,444 KB) (1,929,981 MB) (1,884 GB) I 18:28:21 Destination File System: NTFS I 18:28:21 File Splitting: Auto I 18:28:21 Writing Image... I 18:32:24 Operation Successfully Completed! - Duration: 00:04:03 I 18:32:24 Average Write Rate: 180,802 KB/s (40.2x) - Maximum Write Rate: 319,399 KB/s (71.0x) Overall theres no real problem with how Imgburn is writing the img to the HD, its just slower than it should be I believe. It completes in just over 4 minutes for a 45-50GB BD iso. Could it be the reported write rate is in error? I notice when I change the buffer size to a higher value that it slows down. Ideas anyone?
