Do you *want* a slow burn? I rarely have problems at 8x. Verbatim
DVD+R rated at 16x. But obviously many other factors can cause
problems too. And I'm using SL7, el7 near-clone, which is rare here,

at 2X, the burning is more reliable and produces recordings that are
more durable.
You do not have to take my word for it.
I know engineers who worked for manufacturers where they
were designing and producing cd/dvd burners.
