Plasmon announces multi drive support for DVD/CD libraries
Plasmon, The leader in professional data archival solutions, today announced the integration of multi-function DVD/CD drives (a.k.a. Multi Drive) across their entire range of DVD and CD libraries.
Both the Enterprise D and the new D-Series product families will begin shipping with Multi Drives starting March 3, 2003. Each Multi Drive is capable of reading and writing DVD-R, DVD-RAM, DVD-RW, CD-R and CD-RW formats. The new D-Series libraries have received other significant upgrades and improvements including a standard LVD interface, which provides greater SCSI cable length. The new D-Series library comes with a burgundy colored front door, the same color as the recently released Enterprise D.
D-Series library slot counts and capacities continue to range from 80 slots/376GB to 480 slots/4.1TB of DVD media and the Enterprise D continues to scale from 750 slots/7TB to an industry leading 2175 slots/20TB.

Customers can now choose between multiple formats without concern for the drive type in the library," said Shawn Klein, Director of Optical Product Marketing for Plasmon USA. "Users of DVD-R media will be especially pleased to see a price reduction due to the introduction of the new Multi Drives, as well as the improved recording speeds.
