Japanese Maxell inrtroduces the first DVD-RAM dics compliant with the Version 2.2 Revision 5.0 format specifications, for recording at 6-12x.
The new discs are compatible with DVD-RAM2 burners only, accrording to Maxell. In

is limited, and a firmware upgrade for the DVD-RAM drives is required in most
cases.

September of 2005. The RAM2 meia can be recorded at 6x, 8x, 12x and 16x. The RAM2
compatible hardware can be easily identified by the corresponding logo.
