The PX-716AL, released last year, was Plextors first internal dual layer slot loading DVD/CD drive.
Now the company has released a limited edition of the PX-716AL, which comes in silver colour. The PX-716AL is currently available for $170 (£99).
The PX-716AL can be used in photo kiosks for transferring and archiving photographs and videos onto optical media such as DVDs and CDs.
The 16x speed drive burns at 6x DVD+R DL and 6x DVD-R DL writing speeds and its double layer capability will deliver increased storage (up to 8.5GB capacity).
Plextor has made the drive without incorporating rollers - this will protect the media from damage and scratches and increase the quality of your DVDs or CDs.
The slot loading facility of the PX-716AL provides a longer life span and increased durability, as there is no risk of a tray being broken - it also looks a lot cooler! Less downtime will enable retailers to maximise their ROI while delivering a safe and reliable service to customers.
Furthermore, the PX-716AL has been engineered to a high number of loading and ejecting repetitions (up to 20000 times). This will enable twice as many discs to be burnt compared to some competitive drives, says Plextor.
For manufacturers, the PX-716AL drive can be installed either horizontally or vertically, helping to overcome many space or design issues. The drive is also available for integration by white box PC assemblers, increasing both the functionality and style of generic systems that don't carry a particular brand name.
The new drive accepts discs as small as 8cm, which will deliver increased operability across a range of PCs and laptops, making it ideal for home enthusiasts looking for a stylish drive.
The PX-716AL will be available to industrial users, system builders, and PC assemblers. For consumers, a bundle package, will also be available from the network of Plextor dealers. The package will be covered by Plextors Fast Warranty Service (2-year Collect & Return guarantee in EU, Norway and Switzerland; 1 year in other countries).
