Panasonic LF-D101NS

Panasonic LF-D101NS ... support for CD and DVD technology. The Panasonic LF-101 features breakthrough technology that earned hundreds of patents for Matsushita Electric. It is the first DVD-RAM drive on the market that is fully compliant with the DVD Forum DVD-RAM standard. Panasonic officials attribute the increasing demand for the LF-D101 to the fact that the drive combines high capacity, and a low storage cost with broad support for CD and DVD technology.

The drive offers a number of advantages over other removable, rewriteable storage options: a read/write capacity of 2.6GB (about 4 times the capacity of a CD-R/RW) on a single side, a very low storage cost .008 - .009cents/MB, fast data transfer, and high-speed access. It features the unprecedented media interchangeability - the DVD-RAM drives can read from discs currently accepted by CD-ROM, CD Audio, CD-R, CD-RW and video CD drives, as well as PD, DVD-ROM, DVD video, and DVD-R drives. The LF-D101 is available as an internal drive with a SCSI-2 interface.
