New Iomega 4x DVD DL burner

Iomega announced the availability of the Iomega Super DVD Writer 16x16 Dual-Format USB 2.0 Drive.

The external drive, housed in a slim black enclosure, handles all the major disc formats with speed to burn, including 4x recording of new DVD+R DL (double layer) discs. The included software speeds users through common tasks, making it easy to capture and share precious memories on long-lasting DVDs or CDs. Each 8.5GB double layer disc holds about 34,000 photos, 160 hours of music, or 12 hours of video.

Iomega's DVD Wizard launches from the desktop to help users select the appropriate software and type of disc for different tasks, whether the user is a parent putting together family movies on DVD, a student ripping a personal dance mix, a grandparent creating a digital photo album, or a business archiving 8.5GB of critical data. The DVD Wizard cuts through the disc format confusion and lets users concentrate on what they want to do with their digital data.
