BenQ DW1640 aims to bring professional specification with 16X DVD+R/-R, 8X DVD+RW, 6X DVD-RW and 8X DVD+R Double Layer.

Building on the reputation of the DW1620 re-writer series, DW1640 not only provides quality wiriting but also features a combination of high speed and high capacity, which enables you a fast backup. The exclusive DCS (Dual Cooling System) effectively reduces the potential for over-heating during high-speed reading and writing. The leading combination of speed and quality again proves BenQ's capability of design and manufacturing.

BenQ DW1625, on the other hand, provides unique Light Scribe Technologies, it enables users and businesses to easily create customized, silkscreen-quality labels directly on CDs and DVDs using their own PCs through a combination of LightScribe-compatible media, recordable optical drives and enabling software.

Users only need to burn the data , flip the disc and burn a precise, iridescent label with their desired text and graphics using the same laser - no printer, no lables requried - this way preserving your priceless memories.

BenQ also devotes to the external optical storage. The latest 16X External DVDRW EW162U provides dual interface - USB 2.0 and Serial ATA - for users to enjoy more flexibility in connection. USB 2.0 is the most popular plug-and-play interface with tremendous ease of use, while Serial ATA is the latest new technology, providing more stable data transfer and the capability to connect multiple devices.

All three models are equipped with Nero 6 Suite and BenQ?s unique Qsuite software. Qsuite is an innovative application hat helps to optimize your DVDRW and enhances the convenience of your devices. Through Book Type Management, QScan, Test Write, and WOPC (Walking OPC), users can easily adjust drive settings to gain more control.

Book Type Management allows you to freely choose a disc to be written as a DVDROM, which is the most recognized format for DVD Player. Qscan helps to check the quality of the disc before writing and advises you on the optimal speed of writing, to prevent the media from suffering from bad writing. Test Write creates a simulation writing (before actual writing) on DVD+R/+RW/+R DL media at your discretion. On top of that, more functions are expected to be added to Qsuite soon.

All three models are expected to be available in April and May in most of the European markets, with MSRP Euro 79 for DW1640, Euro 99 for DW1625, and Euro 129 for EW162U.
