Product Overview

DVR-117D

(Available in beige and black)

The DVR-117D high speed DVD burner from Pioneer enables computer users
to create personal DVD movies, make digital photo slideshows, burn music
CDs and back up data files onto DVD-R, DVD-RW, +R and +RW discs with
ease. It also works with dual layer discs, increasing the capacity of a disc
from 4.7 to 8.5 gigabytes for even more storage space. The DVR-117D has
a writing speed of 20x for DVD-R/+R and 12x for DVD-R/+R (DL).

 Optimal Write Speed: recognizes the disc media and automatically

adjusts the drive’s write speed to ensure the highest quality digital
preservation of vital files

 Quiet Drive: the internal mechanisms of the drive were redesigned to

better insulate the distracting noise generated by a disc spinning at
extremely fast rotations per minute (RPM). The unique interlocking
design ensures a low acoustic noise by “trapping” the airflow noise
generated by the spinning disc while simultaneously dampening the
sounds created by normal drive usage

 Improved Durability: Through the new Anti-Dust design, an improved

chassis insulation aids in the protection of the drive’s internal
components from dust and small particles that can hinder the drive’s
operability and lifespan
