Blu-Ray Disc / DVD Writer (Beige)

 

The BDR-101A will write and read single-layer BD-R (Blu-Ray disc recordable) and BD-RE (Blu-ray disc rewritable) discs, and read single-layer and dual-layer BD-ROM (Blu-ray read-only memory) discs.

High-speed writing is a significant benefit. The writer offers 2X speed writing for BD-R and BD-RE single layer media, 8X speed writing to DVD-R/+R, 4X writing to DVD-RW/+RW and 2X/2.4X writing respectively for DVD-R/+R DL (Dual / Double Layer) media types.

Featuring our proprietary Ultra Dynamic Resonance Absorber and the Multi-Effect Liquid Crystal Tilt Compensator, you are guaranteed high reliability in high-density recording and playback with Blu-ray Discs as well as DVD discs.

The BDR-101A is also available in black.
