Optical storage media writing and reading speed

http://dbpedia.org/resource/Optical_storage_media_writing_and_reading_speed

In the history of optical storage media there have been and there are different optical disc formats with different data writing/reading speeds. Original CD-ROM drives could read data at about 154 kilobytes (153.6 × 103 bytes) per second, 1× constant linear velocity (CLV), the same speed of compact disc players without buffering. As faster drives were released, the write speeds and read speeds for optical discs were multiplied by manufacturers, far exceeding the drive speeds originally released onto the market. In order to market increasing drive speeds, manufacturers used the symbol n×, whereby n is the multiple of the original speed. For example, writing to a CD at 8× will be twice as fast as writing onto a disc at 4×. rdf:langString

For example, writing to a CD at 8× will be twice as fast as writing onto a disc at 4×. There are two main types of disc speed, which are the angular and linear velocities. If the disc spins at a constant angular velocity, the linear velocity is 2.4 times higher at the outer edge.
