at what speed was that burned?

4x. The image I wrote was from a USB HDD to this USB burner...

Sadly the burner does not have 6x mode (at least DVDBurn did not want to write so when I selected) just 4x and 8x. The USB EHCI controller does not seem to be able to read and write 2 channels simultaneously at ~11.000 KB/s...

 

Below are the 8x write details.

That's a lot to expect from USB to USB. I use a USB HDD to rip to and then to burn from to my tower and I have verify problems most of the time. Can you mount one of the devices in your machine?

Sadly no. I bought an external burner, because my current drive is mounted vertically, and I suppose it's not for the best...

The USB HDD is a laptop IDE drive and cannot be mounted either my PC or my laptop. Anyway since I have this external drive, I'll try to burn some discs with my laptop as well (it could even be better with it than with the PC, since the PC is a 5 year old P4 2GHz DELL Optiplex and the laptop is a DualCore 2GHz Lenovo T60)

PS. I have killed an another disc with the burner, but the disc should be defect... There was a 'ring' in the written area, and the verify failed. It looked weird, like some old (disc) hardware based copy protection. I think this cube of Verba discs is fake...

You should be able to manage 8x with 2 usb2 devices (usb2>usb2) and get decent burn speeds / Cpu Useage / scans etc.

 

Or it might be time to check out some new enclosures or a different EHCI controller or both.

I noticed you replied since I ran all this, with info about laptop ide in Usb Enclosure so more than likely 5400Rpm which would affect speed.

 

[edit] something unusual in graph as the disc write speed got to 16, or rather 15.9x) I saw That yet graph DIP says 12.30x end . Suppose just at end usb bandwidth dropped at that split second
