LG Debuts Blue Ray Writer with 6x Max Speed

By ChannelTimes Staff
Mumbai, Mar 21, 2008

LG Electronics India (LGEIL), a wholly-owned subsidiary of LG Electronics, South Korea, recently launched what it claims is the world's fastest Blue Ray Writer with BD writing speed of 6x max.

The IDE device can be mounted on any existing desktop PC.

While a normal CD has a storage capacity of approximately 700 MB, a double layer BD can store up to 50 GB of data. In other words, data contents of up to 73 CDs can be stored in one BD Media. Or more appropriately, approximately 35 Bollywood movies can be stored in one BD Disc.

It is also ideal for the small & mid-sized companies for daily backups and is relatively more reliable than a magnetic tape. Software companies and architects will also find high utility for this product to store large-sized programs and designs.

According to R. Manikandan, business group head, IT division, at LGEIL, LG has been world's No.1 in optical drives for 9 continuous years. "By launching this world's fastest Blue Ray Writer with a 6x max write speed, LG again leads the pack. We believe in offering the best products to our consumers and this Blue Ray Writer is a step forward in the same direction."

A single-layer DVD can store up to 4.7 GB of data, which essentially means an average 2 hr standard-definition movie with a few extra features. However, a single-layer Blu-ray disc can store up to 27 GB of data, which implies more than 13 hrs of standard video and more than 2 hrs of high-definition video. Moreover, a double-layer Blu-ray disc has 54 GB of storage capacity. This means it can store more than 20 hrs of standard video and 4.5 hrs of high-definition digital video.

The new Blue Ray Writer GGW-H20L with IDE interface for desktop PC is available in the market at a MRP of Rs.29,990 inclusive of all taxes.
