"The PX-712SA extends Plextor’s family of award-winning dual-format DVD drives into the high-speed realm of 12X recording," said Howard Wing, vice president of sales and marketing for Plextor. "It offers the enhanced set of recording tools of our PlexWriter Premium CD-R/RW drive family, including GigaRec, SecuRec, Q-Check, Silent Mode, and VariRec. PlexWriter Premium drive users who require user-controllable recording tools now can easily migrate to dual-format DVD recording with the new PX-712SA drive and PlexTools Professional software."

The Plextor PX-712SA is a highly versatile DVD/CD burner specifically designed to deliver high-quality recording performance. All Plextor DVD/CD drives are designed for easy installation with Microsoft Windows-based personal computer systems and Apple Computer’s Power Macintosh desktop line. The PX-712SA features a Serial ATA interface, support for horizontal or vertical drive bay orientation, and Plug & Play compatibility with Microsoft Windows 2000/XP operating systems. The PX-712SA has an 8 MB buffer and features Buffer Underrun Proof Technology to prevent buffer underrun errors and allow multi-tasking.

Lossless Linking/Zero Link technology enables users to perform basic editing tasks directly on the DVD disc, so there is no need to reload DVD content back to a PC to make minor changes, and no need to re-burn an entire DVD after making small edits.
