In over ten years of burning read only optical media I've undoubtedly proven this advice to be unfounded, but take it as you will. I'm regularly burning 4.7GB on DVD-R at 4x and achieving 100% data verification on approved media. I've always worked at the recorders top speed and as I mentioned I've not found any of my old CD-R media to be corrupt from even 10 years ago. Most problems with speed are related to buffer unde-runs, PSU inadequacy and over-heating due to inappropriate ventilation.
