    What is the maximum capacity of a DVD? With overburn? Also what is the maximum data can you fit on a 80min/700MB CD-R? With overburn?

    One more question, does any of the maximum capacities vary with different burners?

    Thanks!

    single layer DVDRs are 4.7GB unformatted, so you can only fit ~4.5 GB. Dual Layer DVDRs can hold ~8.5GB I beleive.

    I have been able to burn 750MB using overburn in Nero. If you need to fit more data on a CDR, they do make 90 min/800MB CDRs. you can find them at allmediaoutlet.com
