Just out of curiosity do you guys find that the 1620 burns medium to good quality media like Maxell, Verbatim & TY 8x DVD+Rs better at 8x than 4x speed?

Are you burning ISO files or the Audio & Video folders using Nero. I'm burning ISO files using DVD Decrypter and I'm wondering if that's why your scans look a million times better than mu Verbatim scans.

OK I stepped back to the B7P9 FW from B7S9 and my burns are way way better almost like night & day with Verbatims.
