I jus bought media CD-RW but now I noticed it says:

"CD-RW 8x-10x, For Hi-Speed Drives Only."

Does our drives qualify??? I tried to look that on thinkpad specs, Nero InfoTool... but no luck. Something so basic and I can´t find it...

These newer Hi-Speed CD-RW discs use thinner alloy layers that are rated only for 4-10X recording. These discs may not be recognized by the IBM 2X drive.

It is a Vervatim brand.

Notice they are CD, not DVD disks. I know max speed for DVD is 2x, but at what speeds does our drives burn CD-RW?

Sorry, I've been writing too many DVDs! The write speed is 16x. You are fine!

Wow, IBM´s service it´s good, but this forum is incredible fast!!!!

Thanks Leon! So I guess I am OK, in spite of that the media will slow my driver from 16X to 10X. It is fine with me.

Thanks again and best wishes.
