Dual-format DVD writers have begun their surge on the retail and OEM market. Not only made by the optical drive purists anymore, such as Plextor and Lite-On, DVD writers have become faster and much more affordable. While we continue to hobble on waiting for a DVD writing standard, the simple approach is to manufacture drives that support both technologies. Since all DVD writers support CD-R/W writing with very acceptable speed ratings, dual-format drives offer very attractive single-drive solutions to cover your entire optical storage needs.
