speed on 8.5 GB double layer DVD+R DL media at the World PC EXPO in
Japan.
The technical presentation will be based on the laboratory results of
Philips, MKM and Ricoh.
At 8X recording speed, consumers will be able to create a full 8.5 GB
DVD disc in less than 16 minutes, compared to the 47 minutes (at 2.4X
recording speeds) using current DVD writers. 8X DVD+R DL media and
drives are expected to come to market in the first quarter of next
year.
"When it comes to DVD recording, faster is better," said Frank Simonis,
Chair of the DVD+RW Alliance Product Promotions Group and Strategic
Marketing Director for Philips Optical Storage. "8X DVD+R DL recording
will cut the time it takes to burn a DVD+R DL disc to about one-third
of what it is now. That's something consumers will like. And it's just
one more example of how the DVD+R/+RW format is leading the way to the
future with our ability to provide the functionality and performance
consumers want."
