TDK USA announces 40x VeloCD
Speed, reliability and performance have helped make TDK's veloCD line of CD burners the number one selling brand at retail. Today, TDK sets a blazing new pace in CD recording with the introduction of its high-speed 40x veloCD (AI-401248) CD ReWritable Drive - the industry's fastest recordable CD drive.
The TDK 40X veloCD burner is an internal ATAPI/E-IDE drive offering the ultimate in recording, rewriting, and rip speed performance. With 40x audio and data write, 12x rewrite and 48x data read speeds, the new veloCD is capable of burning an entire CD's worth of music in approximately three minutes.
