These audio recorders search for copyright protection on the CD-R disc when inserted in the drive. If a CD-R Audio disc is not detected, it will reject the disc and not record to thedisc. Once the recorded Audio or Data CD-R is fi nalized it can be played back in any CD player.

Verbatim’s generous selection of pack sizes and confi gurations in the CD-R lineup has something for everyone. All of Verbatim CDs are founded in years of research and improvements that have madeVerbatim one of the most recognized names in recordable and rewritable CD media.

CD-RW (Rewritable)

Rewriteable means that you can use the discs more than once and that the contents of the discs can be erased and rewritten. CD-RW discs are used just like CD-R discs. To rewrite to a CD-RW disc, an end-usermust erase the entire disc from previous recording and then rewrite and fi nalize (you can not just addadditional fi les as needed). CD-RW media is available in the following rewritable speeds: 2X-4X (standardspeed- backward compatible with all CD-RW drives), High Speed 4X-12X, Ultra Speed 16X-24X and Ultra Speed+ 32X.

All DVD media formats share common parameters for use in a widerange of personal and professional applications. DVD+/- R formats range of personal and professional applications DVD+/ R formatsare very similar in capacity and speed. The main difference is the hardware or drive that supports each format. Each DVD hardwaremanufacturer has developed their hardware to record using DVD+R/RW, DVD-R/RW or DVD-RAM media. With older models,the media format is specifi c to the drive type. If you do not use theappropriate media that the drive/recorder is developed for, thehardware will not be able to record data or video fi les and ejectthe media. However, with recent models, most manufacturers have developed DVD drives labeled Dual Format drives which arecompatible with both DVD+R/RW and DVD-R/RW media. Perfect for DVD content distribution and archiving, Verbatim 16X DVD+R andDVD-R are the fastest write-once DVD media available.

One of Verbatim’s unique options in DVD media isthe DigitalMovie™ DVD. Offering the nostalgia andcharm of the movie reels that symbolize cinemas today, Verbatim’s unique DigitalMovie DVD media puts the fun in recording, viewing and sharing home movies. DigitalMovie DVDs are premium quality discswith unsurpassed performance and reliability. UtilizingVerbatim’s proprietary Metal AZO recording dye,DigitalMovie DVDs are perfect for backing up DVDvideo titles and transferring video tapes to opticalmedia that won’t degrade over time.

DVD RW

Verbatim DVD RW offers 4.7GB or 120 Minutes of rewritable storagecapacity, superior recording quality, and compatibility for DVD+RW and DVD-RW writers. Preferred by DVD drive manufacturers, Verbatim DVD RW utilizes Super Eutectic Recording Layer (SERL), which minimizes noise during write/rewrite cycles and provides superior archival stability. Verbatim DVD RW media is compatiblewith most DVD-ROM drives. Users can write to the disc in multiple sessions as long as the disc has not been fi nalized.

DVD+RW technology is used by consumers for both audio/videoand data storage applications. With multi-session writing technology, users who have not fi nalized the disc can quickly adddocuments, data and video segments without having to open and close write sessions. By incorporating the +RW specifi cation fordefect management, manufacturers ensure that data is accuratelywritten to and read from the disc.

DVD+R DL (Double Layer)

DVD+R DL discs offer 8.5GBs of Storage Capacity on a Single-SidedDisc – No need to fl ip the disc! The industry’s fi rst Dual Layer (calledDouble Layer by the +RW Alliance) media. These write-once discs have two recording layers, almost doubling the storage capacity onDVD discs from 4.7GB to 8.5GB on a single side while maintainingcompatibility with most DVD video players and DVD-ROM drives.This is a recordable DVD9 format – the same as most Hollywoodmovie DVDs. A double layer compatible drive is required to burn DLmedia. Most current generation DVD burners available today are able to write to DVD+R DL media.

With outstanding quality and consistent reliability of both recordinglayers, Verbatim DVD+R DL 2.4X media has been approved for highspeed burning of up to 6X speeds by almost all high speed Double Layer drive manufactures. Store up to 8.5GBs of video in as short as 16 minutes while maintaining compatibility with most DVD videoplayers or DVD-ROM drives.

Verbatim DVD+R DL Double Layer media maintains EXCELLENT playback compatibility with most DVD players.

DVD-RAM (DVD Random Access Memory)

This rewritable format provides 100,000 write/rewrite cycles. DVD RAMThis rewritable format provides 100,000 write/rewrite cycles. DVD-RAM features random write/read support, so data, video and audio can be stored and accessed like a hard drive using standarddrag-and-drop techniques. No fi nalization is required, so users do not have to open and close writesessions. However, the format specifi cations that allow these hard drive-like features also renderDVD-RAM media incompatible with most DVD-ROM drives and set-top video players. Single-sided(4.7GB) and double-sided (9.4GB) media are available in 2X and 3X recording speeds. Most DVD-RAMmedia are bare discs enclosed in a cartridge.

Mini DVD R DL Media

Up until recently the most common mini recordable DVDs availablewere 1.4GB DVD-R’s and DVD-RW’s; both of which hold ~30 minuteswere 1 4GB DVD R’s and DVD RW’s; both of which hold ~30 minutesof camcorder footage. Samsung and Sony offer a few camcorder models that support Mini DVD+R DL media. These newer mediaformats can capture nearly an hour’s worth of video camcorder footage. No need to fl ip the disc during recording, which is requiredwhen using double-sided Mini DVD media.

Like the full size 12cm DVDR DL discs, these discs are fully compatible with the DVD+R DL and DVD-R DL standards and should be compatible with almost any DVD drive which can play full size DVDR DL discs, including many standalone DVD players. While existing +R and -R DL compatible DVD writers can write to this media, at this time no hardware upgrades are available to convert current camcorders to support this new format (mini DVD+/-R DL media).

Verbatim offers the most extensive range of mini DVD media for you personal camcorder, DVD-R, -RW,+RW. Looking for that “personal” touch, our standard Mini DVD has a white inkjet printable surface. Thissurface is ideal for custom printing using a direct printing inkjet printer, adhering labels or simply using a felt tip marker. If that’s not enough, the Verbatim DigitalMovie™ Mini DVD combines the nostalgia of a movie reel with the latest video recording technology. Mini DigitalMovieTMe DVD discs can be played back on most home DVD players providing a reliable and cost effective format for video/data recording, distribution and storage.

For added protection against the scratches and abrasion that can occur during normal camcorder andhome use, all Verbatim Mini DVDR media features a proprietary Hard Coat applied to the recording surfacemaking the disc 40 times more scratch resistant than a standard DVD.

UltraLife™ Archival CDR/DVD-R

Verbatim UltraLifeTMe Gold Archival Grade CDR and DVD-R discs areideal for preserving family photos and important records as well as critical corporate data. Each disc is manufactured using proprietaryunique dual refl ective layer technology (DRL) to maximize bothcompatibility and longevity.

Verbatim’s proprietary dual refl ective technology is comprised of a silver layer for broad compatibility and a gold layer for long archival life. The highly refl ective silver layer allows the UltraLife disc to looklike a standard silver disc to CD/DVD burners. This feature provides alow initial error rate, important for long archival life, and the same drive read/write compatibility as standard silver-only discs.

The gold refl ective layer is naturally resistant to corrosion. The goldlayer overlaps the silver layer and prevents oxygen from coming through the lacquer layer or edge of the disc and corroding the silver.Silver oxidation can be a primary factor which limits the lifetime of CD/DVD media.

Features & Benefi ts

• Proprietary dual refl ective layer technology; ideal for long-term storage.• 24 ct. Gold layer maximizes disc lifetime by protecting data from corrosion.• Silver layer delivers high refl ectivity and broad read/write compatibility.

Blue Laser – Blu-ray and HD DVD

Mitsubishi Kagaku Media, Verbatim’s parent company is a member of the Blu-rayDiscs Association and the HD DVD development technology group, which meansthat Verbatim has fi rst hand access to the latest in Blu-ray and HD DVD technology.

Blu-rayBlu-ray is the next-generation optical disc format, developed to enable recording, rewriting and playback of high-defi nition video (HD), as well as storing largeamounts of data. The recording layer of Blu-ray media is placed very close tothe disc surface. These design features allow the capacity of a Blu-ray disc to beincreased to 25GB (single layer) or 2 hours of HDTV. Because the data lies so close to the disc surface, Verbatim’s proprietary super hard coating is applied on top of the recording layer to protect important data from rough handling.

HD DVDHD DVD (High-Density DVD) is a high capacity storage solution promoted byToshiba. A user can record up to 15GB or 75 minutes of high-defi nition videoon a single side. Each disc contains a recording AZO dye specifi cally designed for HD DVD which is highly sensitive to blue laser light, delivering three key advantages: superior compatibility, read stability, and long life.

BD and HD DVD products can be used for data, audio, photo and video storage. Consumers will also benefi t from other improvements over current DVDtechnology including enhanced menu navigation, increased capacity for bonusfeatures and new interactive capabilities.
