this seems about right.  my 16x does a full CD
in about 5 1/2 to 6 minutes.

another thing to remember is a lot of burners now
will not go past 8x if your blank is not good to
go.  if i set my burner to go at 16x with an 8x
blank, it seems to burn at about 8.5-9x speed.
but in my case the buffer stays full.

So, y'all remember to check your blanks and also
check the DMA settings on your IDE, particularly
if you're running win2k and your burner is not
on the primary controller, because win2k will set
that to PIO only by default.
