CES: In Cooperation With Pioneer, Vinpower Digital Announces Enhanced Functionality for BDR-212DBK OD Drive

Vinpower Digital has worked with Pioneer Corporation on the BDR-212DBK 16x internal BD/DVD/CD half-height optical disc drives (ODD).

The company partnered with Pioneer, to enhance the DVD±R writing functionality for the BDR-212DBK line, providing increased quality output, especially for the popular single layer DVD5 (4.7GB) media recording.

“Many of today’s burner drives do not provide the necessary quality when it comes to burning recordable DVD’s,” explains Calvin Chang, CEO, Vinpower Digital. “The newly enhanced Pioneer BDR-212DBK drive recognizes the importance of the DVD duplication market and in cooperation with Pioneer improved the Blu-ray drive’s DVD capabilities, yet remain competitively priced.”

The BDR-212DBK drive has already offered advantages to the standard half-height burner drives as it is built using true Japanese design and parts for a stronger and more reliable drive. With the firm’s support, Pioneer is able to improve the drive’s burning performance by providing consistent and reliable burning of any file type for the duration of the duplication progress. This ensures the recordable DVD media will have a success rate when copying and greater reliability of playback. In addition, the BDR-212DBK will ensure even and uniform burning appearance across the full circumference of the disc every time, even if just burning one disc or during heavy use.

“The focus of most standard CD/DVD ODD manufacturers is to cost down, which directly affects the drive’s performance and functionality“, explains Ryan Swerdloff, VP, Vinpower Digital. “The Pioneer BDR-212DBK drive is a throwback to a time when ODD drives were robust and better suited to the rigors of the demanding duplication market.“
