Recordable 50 GB Blu-ray recordable BD-R DL dual layer discs
A 50GB Dual Layer Blu-ray disc also know as BD-R DL can store 10 times more data than a standard DVD on the same size blu-ray BD-R DL disc. When using Blu-ray it is vital to choose a reliable BD-R disc with a protective coating to prevent data loss and playback issues. The high definition ability of Bluray far outstrips standard DVD-R. How long will it take to record a full 50GB Blu-ray BD-R media disc? It will take you approximately 90 minutes to record a 50GB Blu-ray disc at 2x, this is similar to recording 10 DVD-R discs at 8x, one after the other, however many of the latest blu-ray burners will burn at 8x drastically reducing the recording time. For the professional finish we supply genuine Amaray Blu-ray cases.
How much data can a 50GB recordable Blu-ray BD-R disc actually hold? The disc manufacturers' definition of GB is 1,000,000,000 bytes (SI) but most computer operating systems including Windows use the 1,073,741,824 byte definition so the actual capacity available to the operating system will be 47GB
50 GB Blu-ray media recording compatibility
In terms of recording compatibility, 50 GB Dual Layer Blu-ray media is compatible with Blu-ray recording hardware only, while playback can be accessed through your Blu-ray player or recording hardware. So look to Verbatim, the media of choice, for capturing your high definition video.
Blu-ray recordable disc is the next-generation optical disc format that was developed to enable recording and playback of high-definition video (HD), as well as storing very large amounts of data for 100 year plus storage. A dual-layer Blu-ray Disc can hold 50GB, which can be used to record over 4 hours of HDTV or a blu-ray movie. Blu-ray as the name might suggest uses a blue-violet laser to read and write data while current optical disc technologies such as DVD use a red laser. The shorter wavelengths of the Blu-ray technology make it possible to record more data on the same space as a traditional DVD-R disc. The Verbatim Blu-ray discs in particular are safeguarded by Verbatim’s super hard coat which protects against everyday wear and tear. With the rapid growth of High definition television and video, Blu-ray recordable will meet the consumer demand for recording HD programming and is expected to replace VCRs and DVD recorders over the coming years.
