Product Description
The Memorex 5395-8688 is an internal optical drive designed for desktop computers and workstations that utilize the IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics), also known as PATA (Parallel ATA), interface. This drive offers versatile functionality, capable of both reading and writing to a wide range of optical media formats. Its primary capability lies in burning DVDs at up to 18x speed for DVD-R media and 16x for DVD+R, making it efficient for creating backups, distributing large files, or authoring video content. A key feature of this drive is its support for DVD Dual Layer (DL) technology. This allows users to write up to 8.5GB of data onto a single DVD+/-R DL disc, doubling the capacity of standard single-layer DVDs. This is particularly useful for archiving large amounts of data, creating full-length movie DVDs, or backing up extensive software installations. The drive also handles rewritable DVD formats (DVD-RW and DVD+RW) and DVD-RAM, providing flexibility for temporary storage or repeated data writes. Beyond its DVD capabilities, the Memorex 5395-8688 functions as a CD burner and reader, supporting CD-R and CD-RW media at high speeds (up to 48x). This comprehensive support for various optical disc formats ensures compatibility with a broad spectrum of data storage and media creation needs. The drive features a standard tray-loading mechanism and comes with a black bezel, designed to blend seamlessly with the aesthetics of most computer cases.
