You are going to have to be a little more specific in your quesitons to get proper answers. Care to rephrase?

Please don't cross-post the same material in multiple threads or multiple forums, PowermacG5newbie. This is bad etiquette and fragments the discussions. I removed your post from the other three-month-old DVD+-RW thread.

It should be faster than any single processor Mac to date by a significant margin. Dual processors really help. Shouldn't be much slower than the dual 2.0.

Is it just files or are you burning from iDVD? ... And, err... Define long!!!! 1 hour, 2 hours? Remember a full DVD holds 4Gig of data. That's about 5 or 6 CD's worth so you can expect a full DVD to take a fair bit longer than a CD. OK, I have given up keeping this sig up to date. Lets just say I'm the guy that installs every latest version as soon as its available! |

A 2x DVD burner (slowest speed DVD-R supplied with any Mac) will take about 30 minutes to burn one DVD. Do the math for the rest.
