LG LAUNCHES BLU-RAY DISC REWRITER
LG Electronics has announced the launch of the Blu-ray version of its popular Super-Multi optical storage drive series. The new Blu-ray Disc Rewriter combines Blu-ray technology with all other optical disc formats such as DVD, DVD-R, DVD-RW, and DVD-RAM.
The company says its Blu-ray Disc Rewriter, available in an internal drive configuration of GBW-H10N, provides consumers with higher-quality video and audio rewriting, combined with greater storage capacity enabled by next generation optical disc formats.
The company says this “Super-Multi” capability has been pioneered by them to provide convenience to end users. Compatibility with all recordable disc formats takes the complexity and guesswork out of purchasing blank media.
It is also learnt that GBW-H10N is capable of burning at 4x speed for BD-R, and 2x speed for BD-RE (rewritable disc), and is also capable of writing on DVD-RAM media at 5x speed. With majority of the upcoming Blu-ray burners supporting only 2x recording, LG says the device once again breaks new ground in this rapidly emerging category.
Blu-ray is the next-generation optical disc format, developed by the Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA), an alliance of the world’s leading consumer electronics, personal computer, and media manufacturers. It has been developed to enable recording, rewriting, and playback of high-definition video (HD), as well as storing of large amounts of data. The format offers more than five times the storage capacity of traditional DVDs, and can hold up to 25GB on a single-layer disc, and 50GB on a dual-layer disc.
