DVD burner speeds

Ok...so I bought a USB DVD burner not too long ago (a Sony) since my in-tower burner is a little long in the tooth. It's advertised write speed is 16X for regular DVD-5 discs, but I'll be damned if I can't get more than 4.1X (max) out of the thing...same as my old burner which has a max write speed of 4X. I can't figure this out. Is there a hardware limitation here or something I can change in the comp to make it catch up. Even when I manually set the write speed higher than 4X it's like it hits a brick wall. Hell...even my mom's computer burns faster than this thing.
