Actual speeds may vary. Does not permit copying of commercially available DVD movies or other copyright
protected materials. Intended for creation and storage of your original material and other lawful uses.
Double Layer discs can store more data than single layer discs. However, double-layer discs burned with
this drive may not be compatible with many existing single-layer DVD drives and players.
As Blu-ray is a new format containing new technologies, certain disc, digital connection, compatibility
and/or performance issues may arise, and do not constitute defects in the product. Flawless playback on
all systems is not guaranteed. In order for some Blu-ray titles to play, they may require a DVI or HDMI
digital connection and your display may require HDCP support. HD-DVD movies cannot be played on this
workstation.
NOTE 1:
Not supported as a 2nd Optical Drive.
