Note

Plextor’s Zero Link technology does support selective file erasure on DVD-RW media. Essentially, Zero Link provides an equivalent to DVD+RW’s lossless link feature, enabling DVD-Video players that support DVD-RW media to play edited disks.

DVD+RW and DVD+R

DVD+RW, also called DVD Phase Change Rewritable, has been the premier DVD recordable standard because it is the least expensive, easiest to use, fastest, and most compatible with existing formats. It was developed and is supported by Philips, Sony, Hewlett-Packard, Mitsubishi Chemical (MCC/Verbatim), Ricoh, Yamaha, and Thomson, who are all part of an industry standard group called the DVD+RW Alliance (www.dvdservices.org). Microsoft joined the alliance in February 2003. DVD+RW is also supported by major DVD/CD-creation software vendors and many drive vendors, including HP, Philips, Ricoh, and many remarketers of OEM drive mechanisms. Although DVD-RW has increased in popularity with the advent of faster burning times and easier operation, DVD+RW is the most popular rewritable DVD format.

Table 11.15 lists the basic specifications for DVD+RW drives.
