I have had CD-RW media which were labelled 4x, but I could write them at 10x. They read out as: ATIP info from disk: Indicated writing power: 3 Reference speed: 6 Is not unrestricted Is erasable Disk sub type: High speed Rewritable (CAV) media (1) ATIP start of lead in: -11940 (97:22/60) ATIP start of lead out: 335975 (74:41/50) speed low: 4 speed high: 8 power mult factor: 1 5 recommended erase/write power: 5 A2 values: 00 00 00 Disk type: Phase change Manuf. index: 43 Manufacturer: Acer Media Technology, Inc. Blocks total: 335975 Blocks current: 335975 Blocks remaining: 22593 Starting to write CD/DVD at speed 10 in write mode for single session. Further, I have had other CD-RW media which I could burn at 8x and 4x, but not 6x. - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE9vF6D0iMVcrivHFQRAr1LAJ93/9rOw33lNyX1axEb25PWA2j60QCghwZ5 INNluU9CbGzjz2cG5oB8eDM= =nMBT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
