Memory-Tech Corporation and Toshiba Corporation today announced the latest advance in DVD disc technology: a jointly developed, single-sided, three-layer ROM disc supporting high capacity storage and playback of both DVD and HD DVD formats. The newly announced disc is the latest addition to the DVD Twin format, discs that support both DVD and HD DVD content and that are fully compatible with both formats. The new disc boosts capacity and expands versatility with a three-layer structure offering support for two HD DVD layers and one DVD layer or two DVD layers and one HD DVD layer. Memory-Tech and Toshiba will propose the new disc to the HD DVD Forum, the industry body that defines DVD standards. In a two-layer HD DVD configuration, the new Twin disc has a 30 GB HD DVD capacity, plus 4.7 GB of standard DVD capacity. Configured to maximize standard DVD content, the disc can support 8.5 GB on two layers, plus 15 GB of HD DVD content on the third layer. DVD content can be played back on a standard DVD player, while HD DVD players can play back both formats. |
