Verbatim announce the
latest in DVD recording
8x DVD+R Media
reduces recording time again!
First to market with high speed
DVD technologies, Verbatim is pleased to announce the availability of
Verbatim DataLifePlus 8x speed DVD+R media. Certified for
1-8x* DVD writing, Verbatim 8x DVD+R discs enable users to
burn a full 4.7GB DVD disc in less than 10 minutes. Verbatim 8x DVD+R media
can be used in conjunction with the latest high-speed DVD+
writers from HP, Dell, Plextor and other leading
manufacturers. In addition, these discs are read compatible with the vast
majority of DVD-ROM drives and DVD video
players.
Recognised for its research and
development strengths, Verbatim has an unmatched history of being first with the industry's fastest optical media, whilst maintaining its
reputation for providing the highest levels of reliability
and durability. The key component in achieving 8x speed DVD+R media is
Verbatim's proprietary Metal Azo recording dye, which allows
the media to reach these high speeds while maintaining 1x,
2.4x and 4x recording compatibility.
For higher reliability, Verbatim's
new high-speed DVD+R media is manufactured ulitising Ultra-Precise Molding (UPM) technology. With UPM, the deflection or tilt of the
substrate is minimized so the media spins smoothly at high
speeds, regardless of the type of drive. Stable rotation at high-speeds is
critical to eliminate the possibility of data errors during
the read/write processes.
"Verbatim works directly with
standards groups and leading drive manufacturers to co-develop next-generation DVD solutions," said Merv Tabe, Verbatim Australia's
Managing Director. "These efforts, as well as Verbatim's
extensive R&D capabilities and stringent quality/performance testing
procedures, have helped Verbatim strengthen its reputation
for being first with new disc technologies and first in
quality. These are also the key reasons we were asked to provide the
benchmark media 8x +R drive manufacturers use for their
testing and certification," he added.
With the availability of media that
complies with the 8x DVD+R specifications, consumers, businesses and professionals can save a tremendous amount of time
in recording their content to media that is compatible
with the widest possible range of DVD set top players and computer DVD-ROM drives in use today. These features and the low storage
cost make Verbatim 8x-speed DataLifePlus DVD+R media
ideal for businesses and professionals that need a high-quality DVD duplication solution. The faster speed will enable them to
duplicate and distribute DVDs such as training, sales
videos, service/support videos, data bases, etc. more efficiently and will help
them increase their productivity.
Broad compatibility, a low storage cost and
high-speed recording make the discs ideal for sharing computer data, home videos, photos, and music. With write-once
security, Gigabytes of capacity, and a long archival
life, Verbatim DVD+R media is also an excellent storage solution for data
backups and archiving of vital corporate data as well
as personal memories.
Verbatim is an original member of the DVD+RW
Alliance that developed the DVD+RW format, and was the
first to offer rewritable and Write-Once media for the DVD+RW and DVD+R
formats.
