Product Description
The HP GL653AV is a versatile internal optical drive engineered for HP's Configure-To-Order (CTO) systems. It offers robust DVD+/-RW and CD-RW burning capabilities, allowing users to create and rewrite data on a variety of optical media. With a maximum write speed of 16x for DVD+/-R discs, it ensures efficient disc burning for backups, software distribution, or multimedia projects. A key feature of this drive is its integrated LightScribe technology. This allows users to burn custom labels directly onto compatible LightScribe discs using the drive's laser. After burning data, the disc can be flipped, and the LightScribe software used to etch text or graphics onto the label side, providing a professional and personalized touch without the need for separate labeling tools. In addition to its writing functions, the GL653AV also provides excellent reading performance, with speeds of up to 16x for DVD-ROMs and 48x for CD-ROMs. This makes it a complete optical solution for any system requiring the ability to read, write, and rewrite optical media, all while offering the unique benefit of direct disc labeling.
