AV_Integrated Senior Member Member since:Jan 2005	In simpler terms... Most CDs are 74 minutes or 80 minutes in length. The 'x' is a multiplier... So, if you have a 40x CD burner, it means that a 80 minute CD will take about 2 minutes to burn to that disc. Likewise, if you are putting a full 700MB of data onto the CD, it'll take 2 minutes. DVD burners? Same thing, except DVDs hold a lot more data and have a baseline rate that is higher than CD. Not sure how fast a 4.7GB DVD would take to do at normal speed, but it's about 10 minutes or so for my 8x burner to fill up 4.7GB.
