If 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.
