Buffalo is launching an external burner for Blu-ray, CD and DVD which is able to burn Blu-ray discs at 8x speed. This is an interesting alternative for those who want to take big backups on disks. A disc can hold 50GB.
The external device called Buffalo Blu-ray External and connects to your computer via USB 2.0. It handles most CD and DVD formats and burn Blu-ray discs at 8x speed. For CD and DVD is the maximum speed limits up to 32x and 16x.
Buffalo Blu-ray External runs in black and has a rather anonymous appearance, which allows it to fit on most desktops. Blu-ray discs hold as I have said up to 50 GB of storage capacity, which, according to Buffalo's calculation corresponds to about 40 000 digital photos, six hours of movies in HD or 20 hours of DVD quality.
With the package comes with software CyberLink Blu-ray Disc Suite, which you use to make backups and play Blu-ray movies. The program includes the option to upscale DVDs to higher resolution. It allows you to watch DVD movies on your computer to get a better picture than if you use your ordinary DVD player to the TV
