Even now high speed DVD+RW media is still difficult to find. The LG has no problems writing DVD+RWs at 4x speed.

Nero CD Speed: DVD+R DL Source: Ahead Software

Nero's CD Speed burn tests a DVD+R DL rated at 2.4x. The program emulates a burn that would fill the disc with 8.5GB of data. This test is done by simply placing blank recording media into the burner and running CD Speed the software.

Even though the DVD+R DL test disc is limited to 2.4x, that doesn't stop the LG GSA-H62N DVD writer from operating faster. In fact the LG drive smashes even its own 10x speed limit and hits a top speed of 12.35x which is nice and quick!
