New Blu-ray writer BDR-202


Developed for professional users, the BDR-202 internal drive for PCs supports the writing of both write-once (BD-R) and rewritable (BD-RE) single-layer Blu-ray discs.

The versatile writer, which is now available in Europe, is also compatible with a range of DVD and CD media; speeds include 12X writing to DVD-R/+R, 6X to DVD-RW/+RW and 24X to CD-R/RW.

The optical pickup unit is equipped with our newly developed BD/DVD/CD three-way compatible lens that realises high-speed recording at a maximum speed of 4X on BD-R media and 2X speed on BD-RE.

BDR-202

The writer also reads BD-ROM and DVD-ROM discs, and read/writes to

  • DVD-R/+R
  • DVD-RW/+RW
  • DVD-R DL/+R DL Dual/Double-Layer discs and also
  • CD-R/RW discs.

    • The BDR-202 includes a range of innovations to enhance read/write capabilities including:

    • Ultra DRA: which suppresses vibration when writing based on know-how that we have been cultivating in the development of DVD writers.
    • Limited Equalizer LSI : that dramatically improves reading reliability.
    • Multi-Effect Liquid Crystal Tilt Compensator: that advances the recording and playback characteristics by adding correction to the laser beam which compensates for disc impurities such as titled media and media of various thickness.

    The BDR-202 includes CyberLink’s BD Solution software package to enable the creation and playback of BD movies and the creation and playback of DVDs and CDs.
