LaCie d2 DVD±RW Drive with LightScribe

16x DVD Writing – Double Layer

Exclusive LightScribe Direct to Disc Labeling

LIGHTSCRIBE DISC LABELING

LightScribe is an innovative new technology that allows you to burn silkscreen-quality labels directly onto CDs and DVDs with a laser instead of a printer.** LightScribe uses a combination of your CD or DVD drive, specially coated discs, and enhanced disc-burning software to produce precise, professional labels. The result is an impressive iridescent image composed of art, text, or photos of your own creation.

CUSTOM DVDs IN MINUTES

Offering the fastest DVD record speed on the market in a slim, aluminum design, the LaCie d2 DVD Drive features 16x record speed. Record professional-quality, personalized DVDs with the included authoring software for Windows or Mac. Import video and audio footage from your DV camcorder and burn projects onto DVD or CD-Video discs. Completed DVDs can then be played back on virtually any DVD player.

COMPILE MP3s, PHOTOS, VIDEO

Back up valuable data, share photos, and archive MP3 libraries and MPEG-2 DVD video. With the ability to store digital data on CD or DVD media, the LaCie d2 DVD Drive allows you to burn up to 8.5GB or more than two hours of theater-quality video on large-capacity DVD. This all-in-one rewritable drive also features FireWire and Hi-Speed USB 2.0 ports for easy connection to any Mac or PC, making it the most versatile drive available.

MULTIPLE CD/DVD LABELING

When volume production of professional looking discs is required - for a corporate meeting or a sales presentation, for example - LaCie DVD±RW Drives provide a simple and cost-effective solution. The useful LaCie LightScribe Labeler software lets the user simultaneously print labels on an unlimited number of LaCie LightScribe drives, chained together on a Mac. The management of printing queues is highly simpliﬁed by a user-friendly Mac interface.
