  Preview: BenQ DW830A DL dual layer recorder
Time: 11:18 EST/16:18 GMT | News Source: CDR-Info | Posted By: David Gasior

CDR-Info has posted a preview of BenQ's dual layer DVD recorder, the DW830A drive. Here's a snippet from their article:

The DW830A worked perfectly, even at engineering stage, with the Mitsubishi Chemicals DVD+R DL media. There is a major compatibility issue with DVD writers & combo drives, however DVD-ROMs and DVD players seem to playback the DVD+R DL discs just fine. The official announcement of BenQ states, "disc compatibility with DVD video players and DVD-ROM drives", doesn't mention anywhere DVD writers, so we can say the statement is more or less correct.

For sure, the increased 7.96GB will become handy to all those who wish to make 1:1 backups of DVD9 movies or even store two DVD movies at one disc (with the proper software). Users who wish just to store data, might find the DL solution not so good due to high incompatibility with DVD Writers (and in general DVD readers for PC/MAC).
You can read the entire preview at the CDR-Info web site.
