THE SUPER MULTI BLUE ADVANTAGE
Super Multi Blue Compatibility
LG Super Multi Blue optical drives can read and write most type of
disc formats, including DVD M-DISC and BDXL™, that are in the
market today. This gives you the option to choose the media best
suited for each task.
Blu-ray
Blu-ray Disc is the next generation in optical storage, offering
25GB and 50GB of storage capacity on a disc.
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.
Serial ATA Techonology
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.
M-DISC (DVD)
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.
Dimensions and weights are approximate. Design, specifications, and features subject to change without
notice.
