DVR-109 Pioneer DVD Burner

With over 5 million DVD drives sold, Pioneer's DVD burners continue to be the market leaders!

The DVR-109 supports 6X* Dual Layer DVD recording bringing new capabilities to your PC!  You can now store up to 4 hours of high quality MPEG-2 video (or up to 8 hours of MPEG-1 video) or up to 8.5GB of information on a single 8.5GB dual layer DVD+R or DVD-R disc.
What is Dual Layer DVD?

Burn an entire 4.7GB DVD-R or DVD+R disc in as little as 7 minutes!  Two times faster than previous generation drives, the Pioneer DVR-109 is also a multiple format drive, burning both DVD-R or DVD+R discs at 16x**! 

The DVR-109 also features a range of innovations that improve DVD writing performance. 

Precision Recording Technology
 Smart Laser Driver - the Write strategy control circuitry has been moved closer to the laser pick up to prevent signal distortion between the main board and the drive pick up, allowing high quality recording at high speed.   Liquid Crystal Tilt/Thickness Compensator - the mechanism helps to ensure precise writing onto the surface of discs that have become warped or are of uneven thickness. Such media can also cause vibration in the drive mechanism that impairs recording quality.   The Liquid Crystal Tilt Compensator is an ideal solution for irregularly curved, thin/thick, and dual layer discs.

Ultra Dynamic Resonance Absorber (Low Vibration Mechanism) - this acts to reduce the instability and vibration which is caused by imbalanced or damaged media, to achieve and maintain the integrity of the recording and playback performance

* When 6x compatible Dual Layer DVD+R and DVD-R media is available. Until then 4x write speeds can be achieved on selected DVD+R 2.4x Double Layer media.
** Until such time as true 16x media is available, 16x write speeds can be achieved on selected 8x speed DVD-R and 8x DVD+R media types.
