Verbatim HD DVD-R 5Pk Branded 1x

With the growing popularity of high definition televisions (HDTV’s) and high definition programming, Verbatim is now manufacturing a high capacity storage solution called HD DVD “High-Density DVD.” These are capable of holding large capacity files associated with high definition video.

HD DVD technology uses a blue laser with wavelength = 405nm (nanometers) to read and write data. This is much shorter than the 650nm red laser used to burn DVD. The blue laser's shorter wavelength makes it possible to form smaller data pits, thus increasing the data density and boosting the storage capacity of an HD DVD disc to 15GB (single layer).

HD DVD media is compatible with HD DVD recording hardware only, while playback can be accessed through your HD DVD player or recording hardware. So look to Verbatim, the media of choice, for capturing your high definition video.
