  2. Optical storage media writing and reading speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_storage_media...

    Writing a DVD at 1× (1 385 000 bytes per second) [5] is approximately 9 times faster than writing a CD at 1× (153 600 bytes per second). [6] However, the actual speeds depend on the type of data being written to the disc. [6] For Blu-ray discs, 1× speed is defined as 36 megabits per second (Mbit/s), which is equal to 4.5 megabytes per second ...

    Both CD-R and DVD-R outperformed all forms of Blu-ray disc in regards to longevity: the best performing Blu-ray disc, the BD-RE (rewritable Blu-ray) has an average longevity of 20-50 years, while non-rewritable BD-R discs have an average longevity of 10-20 years under ideal conditions.

    DVD-Video is a standard for distributing video/audio content on DVD media. The format went on sale in Japan on November 1, 1996, [4] in the United States on March 24, 1997, to line up with the 69th Academy Awards that day; [6] in Canada, Central America, and Indonesia later in 1997; and in Europe, [8] Australia, and Africa in

  6. Optical disc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_disc

    An optical disc is designed to support one of three recording types: read-only (such as CD and CD-ROM), recordable (write-once, like CD-R), or re-recordable (rewritable, like CD-RW). Write-once optical discs commonly have an organic dye (may also be a ( phthalocyanine ) azo dye , mainly used by Verbatim , or an oxonol dye, used by Fujifilm [ 4 ...

  7. Media Identification Code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_Identification_Code

    The technology is inherited from the ATIP code used on CD-R discs. If the DVD burner recognizes the discs it means that the disc has been tested by the drive manufacturer to achieve the best possible burn using an optimal write strategy. The strategy is stored in the firmware. Writing to a disc with no MID code or a code that is not recognized ...

  8. List of optical disc manufacturers - Wikipedia

    This list includes both CD, DVD and Blu-ray recordable and rewritable media manufacturers (like Ritek), and disc replicators (companies that replicate discs with pre-recorded content, like Sony DADC).

  9. Constant angular velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant_angular_velocity

    Some high-speed CD and DVD drives can use CAV. [specify] It allows for shorter access times because the rotation speed (angular velocity) does not need to be changed when the laser seeks across the disc, similarly to the magnetic head of a hard disk drive. With a given angular (rotation) speed, the linear speed at the outermost track is nearly ...
