LG's first Blu-Ray burner capable of reading HD DVD-ROM movies will be available in Europe in the following days.
The GGW-H10N can record up to 50GB of data,
equivalent to 4-1/2 hours of high-definition video
or 22 hours or standard definition video (on a dual
layer 50GB BD-R/BD-RE recordable media). Surpassing
the market standard, LG is providing a 4x recording
speed of Blu-ray Discs, which means that it takes
only 23-24 minutes to burn a full single layer BD-R
disc (25GB), compared with 46-47 minutes for
conventional 2x recording.
PowerDVD and PowerDVD Producer software packages
will be available in the retail package, for
high-definition playback and creation of HD videos
on Blu-Ray discs.
The product will be released in June, priced under
US $1,200. The core technologies of Super Multi Blue
Drive are Optical Pickup technology, which supports
Blu-ray disc write/playback, HD DVD playback and
DVD/CD write/playback, as well as the system
controlling the Optical Pickup securely and
effectively.
