Pioneer Readies Three New DVD Multi-Burners
 
Pioneer has announced three new internal DVD multi-writers with ATAPI interfaces for Windows-based PCs.

The DVR-A11-J (pure white), DVR-A11-JBK (black) and DVR-A11-JSV (silver) employ the company’s newly-designed Disc-Resonance Stabilizer, helping to assure stable write and read operation with high accuracy.

At the same time, they realise impressively quiet operation even during high-speed rotation owing to Pioneer’s proprietary technologies including honey-comb structure, claims the company. They look really sweet, too!

Pioneer’s new DVD drives support the recording and playback of recordable discs in seven DVD formats (DVD-R, Dual Layer DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD-RAM, DVD+R, DVD+R Double Layer, and DVD+RW) as well as CD-R and CD-RW discs. The new drives offer industry-leading write speeds, including 8x on single-sided double-layer DVD formats (Dual Layer DVD-R and DVD+R Double Layer).

The new drives’ Disc-Resonance Stabilizer - the projections arranged on the inner surface of the upper case - controls the airflow generated by disc rotation to minimise disc warp which can be caused by disc resonance during high-speed rotation.

The new disc tray with airflow adjustment holes also helps suppress disc resonance. As a result of such structural improvements, the new drives provide users higher accuracy and stability in read and write with quiet operation even in high-speed modes.

The new drives write on Dual Layer DVD-R 4x and DVD+R Double Layer 2.4x discs at the maximum transfer rate of 8x, which helps you easily and smoothly record huge volumes of data, such as motion pictures and back-ups of hard disks, in a short time.

Pioneer has realised such high-speed, high-quality recording by applying its proprietary optical technologies, including Multi-Effect Liquid Crystal Tilt Compensator to improve the recording and playback characteristics by adding astigmatism correction to the existing tilt correction and spherical aberration correction.

Adopting the CAV recording system for 16x high-speed recording to DVD-R and +R discs, Pioneer’s drives are capable of recording at up to 32x speed on CD-RW discs, up to 6x speed on DVD-RW, and up to 40x speed on CD-R discs. In addition, the automatic write speed selecting function optimizes the write speed depending on discs’ conditions, to keep the stability and reliability in high-speed recording.

The new drives will come bundled with an extensive collection of software applications for DVD/CD authoring, DVD slide show creation, data backups, and so on. The DVR-A11-J series will be available in Japan early in March 2006. The drive will be available in the European market as OEM/bulk versions (DVR-111/11D series), which means that they will come as bare drives only with no retail box and software.
