Mitsubishi Kagaku Media (MKM) (Head office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President: Shigenori Otsuka) today announced the launch of its new single-sided dual-layer (DL) 30 GB recordable HD DVD (HD DVD-R) media for PC data in Japan on July 20, 2007. In July 2006, MKM released the world’s first HD DVD-R DL media for recording visual images, and since then, consumers have been able to record digital high-definition broadcasts without any lost of resolution or program time. The new disc follows last year’s release, and with compatible devices now in the marketplace, MKM releases its 30 GB HD DVD-R DL media for PC data.
“We rely on the technology and production expertise we garnered in producing the world’s first recordable DVD DL” said Shigeru Tamura, Chief Information Officer at MKM. “And with this, we are the first in the industry to market a HD DVD-R DL. The recording layers we developed for this DL disc are not only highly sensitive to laser beams, they also offer excellent read stability and long-term durability. In addition, we used our proprietary 2P transfer method to manufacture these DL discs. Both L0 and L1 are highly sensitive and record data reliably. Along with new recording layer material and manufacturing technology, we also employ high-precision stampers compatible with high recording density, transfer technology that ensures perfectly flat discs, and precision molding equipment that ensure against warping or disc thickness variance, which provides stable writing capability across the entire disc.”
MKM meets customer needs by developing highly reliable large-capacity media even for the PC market where larger data capacity is anticipated in coming years.
