-Mitsubishi Electric launches the high speed DD481648 CD writer-
In an age when all Australians are becoming increasingly reliant on electronically stored information, backing it up is imperative. Rewritable and recordable CDs are an easy and affordable way to store and backup information. The new Diamond Data 48x16x48 CD rewriter from Mitsubishi Electric Australia features a maximum 48x recording speed to CD-R, 16x recording to High-Speed CD-RW discs and 48x maximum read speed which combine to make it one of the fastest drives on the market.

The reliable Diamond Data DD481648 is the ideal way for personal and business users to back up and store information to CD.

Hugh Murphy, Technical Manager, Peripherals at Mitsubishi Electric Australia comments, Australian families and businesses store all kinds of information electronically on computers. Business, personal and school documents, digital photos and photo catalogues, music files, research information, website downloads are but a few things that we would all be devastated to lose if our computer crashed. The solution is regular backing up which can protect this invaluable information from corruption or loss.

Murphy estimates that a majority of home computer users and many SMEs do not back up valuable data files from their computers hard drive or rarely back them up. The new CD writer quickly and easily backs up data. Just use the bundled Nero

software to drag and drop Windows My Documents folder or other data folders onto the CD and click the Write CD button. Back up CDs can then be stored safely in case disaster ever strikes.

CDs are also a great way of sharing information. CDs are perfect for moving large files between offices and business or even to transfer from home to work PCs. This CD writer provides not only one of the fastest ways to record information but also to read it making the ideal addition to any home or business.

The DD481648 also features Mitsubishi Electrics BurnProtection buffer underrun prevention technology. BurnProtection prevents common errors that can damage disks and waste time and money. These errors often occur when there is a break in the stream of data supplied to the recorder. When this happens the CD rewriter can recognise the interruption, pause the recording and restart once it identifies that the data stream is flowing correctly again thus avoiding damaging the disk or corrupting information.

It also comes bundled with Nero software. Nero 5.5 burning software makes audio and data CD authoring easy. It provides many advanced recording functions including on-the-fly, track at once, packet writing and support for a wide variety of CD formats. An MP3 audio decoder is also included. The DD481648 drives 40x maximum audio extraction speed also means fast audio ripping capabilities.

Whether for business or home, back up, sharing or storage, the high speed, highly efficient DD481648 is the ideal CD rewriter. The DD481648 is a great investment offering ease of use and most importantly peace of mind for PC users everywhere.
