Delkin Announces 4X External Blu-ray Drive At Photokina 2008

Poway, CA. September 22, 2008 - Delkin Devices, Inc. has just announced the release of the company's latest device - a 4x external disc drive capable of reading and writing to Blu-ray media. Right on the heels of the company's release of its Archival Gold Blu-ray discs, this new drive will make it much easier for photographers to make the transition to Blu-ray technology. Though Delkin's new drive is backward compatible with all CD and DVD recordable media, using the drive with Archival Gold BD-R discs lets photographers quickly and easily preserve large quantities of data for over 200 years.

Delkin's new external drive, which is compatible with the latest BD-R technology, matches the company's Archival Gold BD-R 4x write speed providing users with the fastest method of archiving their images. The drive easily attaches to desktop or laptop computers through Hi-Speed USB 2.0 and comes with recording software, a free Archival Gold® BD-R disc and a padded carrying case. Mac users with OS 10.5.4+ do not need any software to read or write BD-R media.

Delkin Archival Gold® Blu-ray discs feature an unprecedented 200 year longevity rating, as well as a market-leading 4x write speed. Proprietary ScratchArmor™ scratch-proof coating protects the discs over fifty times better than typical coatings found on other optical discs, making Delkin Blu-ray the most durable on the market.
