BenQ Japan today
announced the specifications of BenQ's first SuperMulti DVD writer,
the DQ60. Besides writing DVD-RAM at 5x speed the DQ60 also supports
16x/8x/8x DVD+R/RW/DL, 16x/6x/8x DVD-R/RW/DL and 40x/24x CD-R/RW:
The drive and specifications look suspiciously similar to the TEAC
DV-W516E which has been out in Japan for some months. The TEAC DV-W516E uses
Panasonic chipsets and is according to rumours a TEAC design but with the
manufacturing outsourced to BenQ.
