Buy Top Rated Player Blu-ray

Portable data duplication units have benefited greatly from technological improvements, and the standard 4x Blu-ray writing speed is capable of creating a single-layer Blu-ray disc in just 24 minutes or less. While portable drives are capable of producing discs at speeds much faster than 4x, this setting allows users to store media relatively quickly without straining the capabilities of the built-in central processing units that come standard with most portable drives.

4x Blu-ray Burning Speeds and Beyond

Though the 4x Blu-ray burning speed is perfectly suited to most applications, users can take advantage of different settings. Units with high-speed capabilities often allow the user to select lower speeds at times when full power isn't necessary. Here is a table listing the time it takes to complete the burning process at varying speeds:

  • 1x: 90 minutes for single-layer discs/180 minutes for dual-layer discs
  • 2x: 45 minutes/90 minutes
  • 4x: 23 minutes/45 minutes
  • 6x: 15 minutes/30 minutes
  • 8x: 12 minutes/23 minutes
  • 12x: 8 minutes/15 minutes

Blu-ray discs, just like CDs and DVDs, are available in rewritable and write-once formats. Many users prefer the versatility of the rewritable format, but they're currently costlier than the write-once format and are most often used by individuals who need to transfer large quantities of data from one computer to another safely, quickly and reliably.
