In this segment, we will be testing the write speed of the ASUS DRW-1814BLT for the various DVD recordable media below. This is a gauge of how this drive stacks up against the competition.

4x DVD-/+RW / DVD+R DL

Brands of Media used: -

  • SmartBuy 4x DVD+RW = PRODISCW02
  • Verbatim 4x DVD-RW = MCC01RW4X
  • Verbatim 2.4x DVD+R DL = MKM001


6x DVD-RW / 8x DVD+RW

Brands of Media used: -

  • Ricoh 8x DVD+RW = RICOHJPNW21
  • MKM 6x DVD-RW = MKM 01RW6X01

Again, the ASUS drive hardly covered itself in glory here in terms of the time taken to complete these but at least we had no problems burning the various media here at its advertised speeds.
