Who doesn't like to save time? Such as in reading and writing DVDs and CDs. The NEC ND-3550 puts you in the driving seat by ensuring that working with your storage media runs smooth at all times. This high-performance DVD/CD-burner is able to read your DVDs at speeds of 16x. With CDs, its speed is 48x. And it also brings fascinating dynamics into play in writing your silver disks. It deals masterfully with the DVD+R and DVD-R formats at speeds of 16x. DVD+RW and DVD+R9 are written at speeds of 8x and DVD-RW/DVD-R DL at 6x. You may ask what are its numbers in burning CDs? Even here, with speeds of 48x (CD-R) and 32x (CD-RW), it is the best in its class. In addition, all components of the ND-3550 are lead-free and therefore already comply with the statutory recycling standards of tomorrow.
