While there has been attention this week on super drives that support DVD-RAM, the last new standard is still being implemented. DVD-R DL media is just becoming available.
Conrexx Technology B.V. / RITEK Europe (NL) were kind enough to send us some of their latest media – the Traxdata DVD-R DL 4x, before the official European release. And in this article we are going to take a look at this media and test its performance with various DVD-R DL writers and also test the media compatibility with DVD standalone devices and other PC DVD devices.
In CD Freak's testing, only the LiteOn 1693S was able to burn the media at full speed, with a decent quality scan. The Benq 1640 couldn't do anything with the disc, and the Pioneer 110 burned it at 2x, which is half speed. Be warned therefore that there are compatibility issues with this new standard, and it needs some more maturity.
