Blu-ray Burning Supplies
Blu-ray recordable media discs are capable of storing much more data than conventional CDs or DVDs, thanks to the advanced laser technology that powers this new format. Utilizing the data density power of shorter-wavelength blue-violet light, this media format has become the standard for the high definition video age. A single-layer Blu-ray recordable disc can easily hold a 135-minute MPEG-2 high definition video file, with dual-layer discs capable of storing up to nine hours of HD video footage.
A Range of Blu-ray Recordable Drive Speeds
As with CD and DVD burners, Blu-ray recordable drives function at different speeds. The amount of time it takes to create a disc varies, but the following approximations are generally accurate for single-layer discs filled to capacity:
- At 1x speed: 95 minutes
- At 2x speed: 47 minutes
- At 4x speed: 24 minutes
- At 6x speed: 16 minutes
- At 8x speed: 12 minutes
- At 12x speed: 8 minutes
Many data duplication units utilizing Blu-ray recordable technology also have dual printing capability, allowing users to print custom graphics right on the disc surface. Consumers can select units, which are either inkjet or thermal printer compatible, with the most advanced equipment offering built-in printer systems. As a more economical alternative, consumers can also purchase units that have ports allowing for the addition of an external printer.
