Samsung (SH-224DB) 24x SATA DVD Re-Writer
 
The SH-S224 drive offers a powerful over-speed performance feature that enables consumers to burn data at high speeds - even on low speed media. With over-speed recording, users can write at 24X speeds on 16X media and 12X speeds on 8X media. As lower speed media is more cost-effective, users can save money while burning discs at faster speeds. 
 
The SH-S224 drive provides blazing recording speeds across a gamut of different data media types including 24X DVD±R recording, 12X DVD-RAM recording, 16X DVD+R Dual Layer recording, 12X DVD-R Dual Layer recording, 8X DVD+RW recording and 6X DVD-RW recording. It enables consumers to burn 4.7GB on a DVD±R disc in approximately 4 minutes and 26 seconds, a 6 percent increase in speed compared to a 20X DVD writer. It also takes less than 12 minutes to burn 4.7GB in DVD-RAM format, which is a 30 percent increase in speed over a 20X DVD drive. 
 
Samsung's SH-S224 drive supports SATA interface, the dominant interface for PCs. As with Samsung's complete WriteMaster optical disc drive lineup, the SH-S224 features specific technology that ensures best-of-breed performance including SAT1 (Speed Adjustment Technology), TAC2 (Tilt Actuator Compensation) and Double OPC3 (Optimum Power Control). Buffer Under Run Free Technology4 supports stable writing under high speed, and Magic Speed5 and ABS (Automatic Ball Balancing System) 6 technologies reduce vibration and noise. The SH-S224 is also eco-friendly designed and is RoHS compliant.
