Are you sure about that DVD-R?

AFAIK, the iSeries only supports DVD-RAM.  Which is different than DVD-R
or DVD+R.

As Rob pointed out, it is very slow.  You can however, make use of the
virtual optical support to write to an image file the DUPOPT to the
actual disk.

I'd only consider it if you can fit your backup on a one or two disks.

Subject: Which DVD to use?

Is anybody using DVD for Back-up?  If so, what will you 
recomend for a 520?

I understand that the iSeries requires DVD-R or DVD-RAM,  but 
there is 
is a big difference in cost.
