No problem; misunderstanding. Look at the specs for the drive, that's the limit. I have a Sony CRX140E I bought over a year ago; it's 4/8/32 Which means that it rewrites at 4x, burns at 8x, reads at 32x. Last time I looked 16x burning was becoming standard. So I imagine the 12x you report is the rated speed of your drive. The disk may be rated at "up to 40x", but that's only if you have a drive capable of doing that, and I doubt anything a home user can afford does yet. -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
