    The fastest I have seen are NECs coming in around 10:30 using a blank Taiyo Yuden disc, the best blank media. The only other burner I have seen come in under minutes are LG which did 10:55 on the Lenovo n100 I wrote the review on. I think it was the GMA-4082. You can check the review to find out for sure. I also used a TY disc.
