JVC’s world first: dual layer DVD-RWIf you often burn videos, photos or other projects temporarily to a disc and prefer to reuse the discs over and over again, JVC’s latest technology could be just what you’re looking for.

The company, which has a local base in Cypress, calls its new single-sided, dual-layer DVD-RW a ‘world’s first’ because it’s reusable (hence the RW). Capacity is 8.5 gigabytes.

Other features: Has a 2x-rewriting speed (that means it burns twice as fast as it takes to listen to it), and works with computer DVD drives that are “DVD-RW for DL” compatible. The disc can be rewritten about 1,000 times.
