Verbatim Unveils First 15GB HD DVD-R
Verbatim Corporation has unveiled the industry's first 15GB HD DVD-R media which will start shipping in July and its 30 GB dual layer HD DVD-R counterpart will start shipping in June. The HD DVD-R media would not be compatible with standard DVD recording dye and uses the new patented Metal AZO recording dye which makes its highly resistant to sunlight and heat. Features like a homogeneous groove shape, substrate thickness and flatness of the disc make the discs extremely durable and tough. For more info visit: http://www.verbatim.com/
Verbatim/MKM's new recording dye delivers three key advantages: -0-
1. Superior Compatibility. High recording sensitivity plus the
wider power margin of the new recording layer ensure a low
error rate, regardless of drive power fluctuations or smudges
on the disc surface.
2. Read Stability. Uncompromised read stability from day one to
more than 1.5 million(1) read cycles ensures years of
ultra-reliability.
3. Long Life. Highly stable recording characteristics for a
lifetime of high performance -- even after long periods of
storage for both recorded and unrecorded media. Like the
patented Metal AZO recording dye used with Verbatim's DVD-R
media, the new dye is highly resistant to sunlight and heat.
