Witnesses revolutionary Blu-ray DVD burner BDR-101A Evaluation
As the first available Blu-ray recorders, Pioneer BDR-101A can take the user into the Blu-ray era of responsibility?
Traditional, using the red laser with double-layer DVD 8.5 GB capacity, the need for massive. Data storage users see glimmer of hope, but at every turn for the dozens of GB of high-definition video content, there is no red light DVD Huitianzhili. As a result, single-sided single-layer discs can be reached capacity of 25 GB Blu-ray technology was born, although the major manufacturers in the Blu-ray will be very much earlier done a great deal of publicity, but so far engineers get BDR-101A Blu-ray pioneers carved Evaluation of machine, it seems that the Blu-ray from the red light to the transition is not easy.
Blu-ray technology has been able to DVD discs will enhance the capacity suddenly to one side single-layer 25 GB, the most fundamental reason is the use of a shorter wavelength blue laser to record data on the disc. Pioneer BDR-101A not only support the BD-R disc into a burning, but also support for BD-RE repeatedly into the CD burner, burn rate were 2 X. In addition, BDR-101A is compatible with the traditional red DVD. But some Unfortunately, it does not support CD burning and reading.
Engineers for Pioneer BDR-101A (a PATA interface) built a more high-end test platform to ensure that a Blu-ray recorders will not have any impact test bottleneck, the profile platform for AMD Athlon 64 3800 + processor, Yuzhan 1 GB dual-channel DDR -400 memory, ASUS A8N SLI Deluxe motherboard (nForce4 chipset), Asus GeForce 7800 GTX Top graphics card, 150 GB Western Digital Raptor 10,000 to the hard drive. Engineers first to use TDK 2X BD-RE discs were tested, Nero CD-DVD Speed 4.51.3 burn 23770 MB data for the time spent by 46 minutes and 27 seconds, recording a very smooth curve (as shown) can See that the BDR-101A is the constant 2 X-speed burners, and the recording process very smoothly. Next, engineers used TDK BD-R discs for the same tests, the testing process very smoothly, 23060 MB data recorders of the time-consuming for 45 minutes.
Since the video applications based on the Blu-ray and HD-Blu-ray source is also less, the Blu-ray copyright protection system also is not perfect, so this test fails to BDR-101A Blu-ray disc recorder and a copy test, But the Blu-ray video protection from the current state of development of technology, it is estimated that BDR-101A should not be complex and some of the harsh built-in protection of intellectual property rights of these technologies.
And Blu-ray part of the test compared to the BDR-101A DVD on the red test insipid and tasteless, the BDR-101A DVD burner on the red light of the specifications are not high, so the Mitsubishi 16 X DVD + R, 16X DVD-R , 4X DVD + RW, 6X DVD-RW on the 4433 MB data recorders longer time, were 10 minutes and 24 seconds, 10 minutes and 24 seconds, 14 minutes 44 seconds and 15 minutes and four seconds.
Pioneer BDR-101A is the first listing of the Blu-ray recorders, it will also be available to users into the new era of Blu-ray, only BDR-101A high prices is not an ordinary users to the consumer.
Although Pioneer BDR-101A available to users of the Blu-ray into the new era, but its high price it is difficult for users to accept.
