Verbatim presents Blu-ray DL 2x with 50GB
22/12/2008
 

Just in time for Christmas, Verbatim is presenting a recordable BD-R 2x Dual Layer with 50GB of storage capacity with 2x burning rate. The new Verbatim Blu-ray Disc is suitable for recording films in high definition, backing up large amounts of office data and the long-term archiving of photos and music. The Verbatim BD-R 2x DL 50GB is now available in stores in a 5-pack jewel case.

Verbatim's new Blu-ray disc offers, with 50GB of storage capacity, space for up to 270 minutes (MPEG2) of entertainment in HD-quality for the whole family. The burning time takes 93 minutes. Those BDs are exceptionally resistant because of the Verbatim specific HardCoat-technology: Its superior anti-static and anti-scratch properties protect the BD data layer, that is close to the surface of the disc, against scratches, fingerprints and dust particles. "Thanks to the hard coat protective layer and recording technologies developed by our proprietary company Mitsubishi Kagaku Media, customers can be confident they have media of the highest quality", says Torsten Leye, Marketing Manager Optical at Verbatim EUMEA.

Verbatim/MKM is a contributing member of the Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA) and as a leading manufacturer of CD- and DVD-media maintains close relations to the most important manufacturers of hardware for optical storage media and supports them by providing discs for testing. "For end users, this means they will have the best compatibility between their hardware and Verbatim-branded media", says Leye.
