Product Description
Sony introduced its next generation of DVD+RW drives, which now also support write-once recording on DVD+R discs. The DRX-120L i.LINK external burner combines DVD+RW/+R and CD-R/RW recording with DVD-ROM and CD-ROM playback - all in one device that delivers compelling features for burning DVDs and CDs. The new DVD+RW/+R and CD-R/RW combo drive and software suite enable users to seamlessly back-up or store up to 4.7GB of computer data on a disc, transfer and convert more than two hours of high-quality (MPEG-2) digital video footage from a camcorder or VCR, and play back DVD-ROM and CD-ROM discs.This model supports up to 2.4X maximum writing speed for DVD+R/+RW discs, 12X maximum recording speed for CD-R discs, and 10X maximum recording speed for CD-RW discs. For users of i.LINK (IEEE 1394)-equipped PCs, the DRX-120L provides the convenience of plug-and-play connectivity and the ability to daisy-chain other i.LINK devices (such as DV camcorders) to the drive. DVD+R media, with its write-once capabilities, offers users an alternative to DVD+RW media for permanent storage applications or for sharing content with others, due in part to their enhanced compatibility with existing DVD-Video players and DVD-ROM drives. DVD+RW media is fully rewritable, and is ideally suited for data back-up and personal storage. With the introduction of a new software suite and a plug-and-play i.LINK DVD+RW drive, Sony is making it even easier for consumers to take full advantage of the multi-faceted benefits of CD and DVD recording.
