Pioneer Europe has
officially announced their new series of 20x
DVD writers. The DVR-115D, DVR-215D and DVR-215 are capable of 20x DVD±R and 10x DVD±R DL writing speeds and feature Pioneer's
Disc-Resonance Stabiliser technology. The DVR-215 ups the ante further with support for 12x DVD-RAM writing
speeds.
The DVR-115D is a dual-format
ATAPI DVD writer (writing to DVD-R/+R, DVD-RW/+RW and CD-R/RW media). Also available are two SATA drives: the DVR-215D writes to an
identical range of media as the DVR-115D whilst the DVR-215 is a multi-format unit that adds DVD-RAM writing capabilities.
All
models offer read-support for DVD-RAM discs and the ability to write at 20X speed on DVD-R/+R discs. They include our original
technologies to enhance reading and writing performance and are available in three colours, beige, black and silver.
As
usual, Pioneer is reserving a special drive for the Japanese market. Along with a nicer looking bezel, the DVR-A15J supports LabelFlash and Pioneer's new PowerRead and PURE
READ technologies. Both of these technologies are designed to cope with discs that may be scratched or dirty and, in the case of PURE
READ, deliver the best music quality possible.
