Verbatim introduces 3-layer, 100GB recordable Blu-ray disc
A producer of compact storage devices, Verbatim has launched a Blu-ray disc to run on BDXL-compatible readers and writers with 100 GB of super-storage capacity - four times higher than the storage on a standard recordable Blu-ray disc.
Already certified by the Blu-ray Disc Association, the high-capacity recordable BD discs enable users to back up high-resolution photography, music or HD video files at 4x write speed. With 100GB storage, the BDXL discs can approximately store over 40,000 photos, 20,000 songs or 8 hours of HD video.
Standard Blu-ray discs provide storage capacities of 25GB for a single-layer disc and 50GB for a dual-layer disc. Verbatim's BDXL disc comprises a third layer to give it a storage capacity of 100 GB. The discs come with a specialised hard coat surface to protect them against scratches.
The BDXL 100GB Blu-ray discs are now available at a recommended price of €45.
