What is HD-Burn?

Postby pranav81 on Sun Sep 21, 2003 1:25 am

Dear all,
Hi.I downloaded the Nero 6 startup PDF file and read that there was a HD-CD burning option.It was stated that you can burn 1.4 Gb of data on a normal CD-R(700 MB)using DVD technology.If this is possible with Nero 6 then I will definitely buy it,irrespective of how buggy it is :lol: .I will be glad if someone tells me how this is possible.


Waiting for some replies,

It's possible only if you have certain hardware.

HD-Burn is a special feature invented by Sanyo. It only works with certain Sanyo drives; you won't be able to do this with other drives.

Dear all,
Hi.I just want to know that why don't we see Sanyo's CD-Writer's as compared to other companies if they can write 1.4 Gb of data on a normal CD-R?Is the price too high as compared to the normal CD-Writer's?And why doesn't Sanyo licence that technology to other vendor's?

First, Sanyo only sells CD-RW drives in the OEM market, so you won't normally find a Sanyo branded CD-RW drive in the first place:

http://www.digital-sanyo.com/BURN-Proof/product/

Second, HD-BURN is a relatively new technology that Sanyo is still trying to promote. I think they perfected it after they designed their last CD-RW drive, and it isn't something that can be added by a firmware update. Thus, only newer drives will be able to support HD-BURN.

Sanyo is actively trying to get others to license the technology, but apparently hasn't had much luck so far. Right now I believe only the Optorite DD0201 and DD0203 drives support HD-BURN, which is somewhat ironic since both are DVD burners and one of the touted features of HD-BURN is greater data density without the need for a DVD burner...
