Features
HP’s super multi drive offers high speeds and double-layer DVD,¹ and it’s LightScribe Version 1.2-ready for high-contrast LightScribe labeling.² It lets users easily preserve, edit and share up to 8.5 GB of video, photos, and multimedia presentations on one double-layer disc – and quickly store, back up and transport files on DVDs and CDs. The dvd840i records double-layer DVDs at up to 8X, recordable DVDs at up to 16X, rewritable DVDs at up to 8X, and DVD-RAM at up to 5X.
LightScribe is the innovative new disc-labeling system that gives CDs and DVDs a neat, professional look without ink, pens, or paper labels. With LightScribe, you simply burn your data, flip the disc over, and burn a precise, silkscreen-like label directly onto your LightScribe CD or DVD.
