One hopes that the write speed of these disks will be proportionately faster than DVD write speed. A DVD writing at 16X transfers about 22MB/s. At that rate it would take 1.44 years to fill up this disk writing to it continuously. Even at 1GB/s (roughly the write speed of an SSD) it would take almost 12 days to fill up one of these disks.
