Eindhoven, The Netherlands - Receiving a prestigious Red Dot design award earlier this year inspired PLDS (Philips & Lite-On Digital Solutions) to re-design its standard external DVD writers. In October, a new external Lite-On DVD writer will hit the market, the DX-20A3P. The DX-20A3P will be a high speed 20X DVD writer in a trendy black & white casing. The new enclosure gives the drive a robust and elegant look. Compared to previous external Lite-On DVD writers, the DX-20A3P is more compact in size.New is also the power-switch at the back, so user can easily save power consumption when the drive is not used. Thanks to the included stand, the drive can be mounted vertically to save space on the desk.
For those who are looking for an external optical storage device that is not only fast and versatile, but also comes in a modernly designed casing, the DX-20A3P will be the product of their choice.
Like all of the Lite-On 20X DVD writers, the DX-20A3P incorporates the Lite-On SmartWrite technology. This technology allows the DVD writers to overspeed certain 16X media to 20X. Besides overspeeding to the highest possible writing speed, SmartWrite technology is also well appreciated for its quality improvement for low-quality media. It optimizes the writing strategy for unknown media brands in order to get the highest quality results possible.
The DX-20A3P is available in Europe from November.
