ND-4550A

Superior in many formats – especially in DVD-RAM.

Do you wish to achieve optimal rewriteability and increased data security with your DVDs? In that case, the DVD-RAM format is especially recommendable. Here’s a tip: Our DVD/CD burner ND-4550A is the ideal device to burn your DVD-RAM media at rapid speeds of 5x.

Besides DVD-RAM, the ND-4550A can also handle the entire spectrum of common DVD and CD formats. As you can rightfully expect from a device of this class, it operates not only securely and reliably but also at extremely high speeds in all disciplines. DVD+R and DVD–R are written at speeds of 16x. Your “Newcomer” has speeds of 8x in the DVD+RW and DVD+R9 formats. And it can achieve high speeds of 6x for DVD-RW/DVD-R DL. Laudable mention must be made of its CD-specific write performance at 48x (CD-R) and 32x (CD-RW). And it is unsurpassed in its class in reading DVDs (16x) and CDs (48x).

All components of the ND-4550A are “lead-free” and therefore already comply with the statutory recycling standards that come into effect on January 1, 2006.
