DVD Recordable (DVD-R) technology allows anyone to
create DVDdiscs at the desktop. Similar in concept to Compact Disc Recordable(CD-R), DVD-R
is a write-once medium that can contain any type ofinformation normally stored on mass
produced DVD discs video, audio,images, data files, multimedia programs, and so on.
Depending on thetype of information recorded, DVD-R discs are usable on virtually
anycompatible DVD playback device, including DVD-ROM drives and DVD Video players. A DVD-R disc is able to contain a maximum of either 4.7 or 3.95 billion bytes of information on each side, depending on the type of blank media used. Since the DVD format supports double-sided media, up to 9.4 Gbytes can be stored on a single double-sided DVD-R disc. Data can be written to a disc at a DVD "1X" equivalent of 11.08 megabits per second (Mbps), which is roughly equivalent to nine times the transfer rate of CD-ROMs "1X" speed. After recording, DVD-R discs can be read at the same rate as mass produced replicated discs, depending on the "X" factor of the DVD-ROM drive used. These transfer rates, coupled with DVD-Rs capacity and conformance to worldwide DVD standards, makes it an extremely viable and cost effective storage medium. |
