Pioneer Japan today announced its first Blu-ray Disc writer, an internal ATAPI half-height burner with the model name BDR-101A. The drive supports reading and writing bare single layer 25GB BD-R and BD-RE discs at 2x speed (72 Mbps). It also supports reading single and double layer BD-ROM discs as well as burning DVD±R at 8x, DVD±RW at 4x, DVD+R DL at 2.4x and DVD-R DL at 2x. Pioneer expects to start shipping the BDR-101A at the end of January 2006.
Main features
(1) Newly-developed BD/DVD compatible lens
The pickup equipped with the Pioneer's newly-developed BD/DVD compatible lens realizes high-speed recording at a maximum of 2x for BD-R/BD-RE 2x media. This will also play BD-ROM and DVD-ROM discs, and play or record on DVD-R/DVD+R, DVD-RW/ DVD+RW, Dual Layer DVD-R, and DVD+R Double Layer discs.
(2) Various proprietary high-quality recording technologies for both Blu-ray and DVD discs
*
Ultra DRA to suppress vibration, a technology developed based on know-how that Pioneer has been cultivating in the development of DVD writers
*
Limited Equalizer LSI to dramatically improve reading reliability
*
Multi-Effect Liquid Crystal Tilt Compensator to improve the recording and playback characteristics by adding astigmatism correction to the existing tilt correction and spherical aberration correction.
The BDR-101A does not support reading and burning CDs and unfortunately it looks like it won't support double layer BD-R and BD-RE discs either. At the coming CES show in January many companies are expected to announce BD products so we will probably soon find out how the specs of the Pioneer BDR-101A compares.
