Lite-On IT Lights the Way for All Media
Lite-On IT is combining the very best of two leading optical technologies with the launch of their latest DVD writer
The SHM-165H6S is an internal DVD±R(W) writer with double layer capabilities. It integrates fast writing speeds of up to 16x with LightScribe and Super AllWrite capabilities - meaning users can select media without any worries, and create stunning labels for them too!
LightScribe:
LightScribe is an innovative technology that uses the laser in compatible drives to 'draw' high quality images on the top of specially prepared discs. It provides the ultimate professional finish and makes creased labels and smudged pen a thing of the past. Visit www.lightscribe.com for more information.
Super AllWrite:
Super AllWrite(tm) is compatibility standard which allows the DVD burner to write to any disc media: DVD+/-(R/RW), DVD-RAM and Double Layer. This fantastic optical drive technology means the user no longer has to worry about different types of media or drives. Thus, the purchase and usage of discs will be hassle free and more accessible, especially helpful to novice computer users who do not always understand the differences between media types.
As well as being packed with cutting-edge technology, the SHM-165H6S also demonstrates great performance on reading and writing speeds and quality. The drive writes to double layer media, letting you store, edit and share up to 8.5 GB of video, photos, multi-media presentations and more on one DVD. Furthermore it writes on DVD±R at 16x and rewrites on DVD+RW at 8x and DVD-RW at 6x.
The SHM-165H6S will be available across Europe from August 2006.
