That's not right! I have the Plextor 241040a and I can write a 650 mb disk in 3:45 and usually the 700 mb disk in 4:00. Are you sure you're using 24x media? I purchased Fuji 24x media that can't burn any faster than 16x, which is about the same speed as you stated. Try some other disks and see if that doesn't improve.
