Column Explanation:

PC DVD (Re)Writers

= Computer / PC DVD Recorder Drive

Write support / Read support
DVD-R
= Works
DVD-R = Is not supported
DVD-R? = Not tested

Writespeed
2xDVD-R = 2x max burn speed for this medium
1x DVD±R/W/RAM burn speed is about 1350 kbyte/s (9x CD-R/W speed)
1x CD-R/W burn speed is 150 kbyte/s


I can NOT gurantee that this list is 100% correct and don't forget to read the PDF file below for more information.

NOTES:

1) Removed Prices/Mac from tables, too difficult to keep up with it.
2) Added a table to represent if the drive supports the new Mt. Rainer format.
3) Design of new layout and the DVD ReWriter lists are taken from DVDRhelp.
4) I've combined the 90min and 99min tables into a single table, which will represent the maximum overburn capacity for the drive

* Only the Lite-On/CyberDrive/AsusTek support 99min CDR media OFFICIALY! *

* = Drive Confirmed to burn upto the marked capacity but not at full recording speed!

Remark: If you find any problems with the links or you found some information which mismatches what is showen, please contact me so I will update and correct, I can only make this work with your help!

For more information regarding drives supporting 90/99min CDR media, download this PDF file page:
90/99 min CDR Burner Compatibility List
