THE SUPER MULTI BLUE ADVANTAGE
Multi Blu Compatibility
LG Super Multi Blue optical drives can read and write four
types of disc formats in one convenient package:
1. DVD+R
2. RW DVD-R
3. RW DVD-RAM
4. Blu-Ray Disc
This gives you the option to choose the media best suited for
each task.
M-DISC
Compared to other recordable DVDs on the market today,
M-DISC offers superior reliability in data storage that provides the
permanent optical data storage solution.
S rial ATA T chonology
Serial ATA is a 1.5Gbps evolutionary replacement for the
Parallel ATA physical storage interface used to connect
storage devices, such as hard disks, DVD and CD rewriters to
the PC motherboard. Serial ATA is scalable, enables design
of smaller PCs, and will allow future enhancements to the
computing platform.
BDXL
The BDXL format supports high-capacity blu-ray discs (up to
128GB write-once discs) for users that need to store a large
amount of data.
