Burning Dual Layer DVD

I have seen post on forums asking how long it takes to burn a Dual Layer DVD. This evening, I thought I record my experience.

I wanted to back up one of my flash drives. Its really easy to do on an iMac, and more importaintly its fast. I connected the flash drive to my computer and moved the contents to a folder on the desktop. I then right click on the folder and select Burn "USB Content" to Disk.

It took 15 minutes to burn a 5.28 GB Folder at 6x. I waited 8 minutes before the verification process started. It took about 12 minutes to verify that the burn process was successful. Which means that it took 35 minutes to burn 5.28 GB on a Dual Layer DVD at 8x.
