What Is DVD-R?


DVD-R stands for DVD Recordable and DVD-RW for DVD re-writeable.

There are three DVD recording standards. DVD-R/DVD-RW and DVD+R/DVD+RW have similiar features and are compatible with many stand-alone DVD players and most DVD-ROMs. DVD-RAM has less DVD Player and DVD-ROM compatibility but better recording features.

DVD-R and DVD-RW

  • DVD-R was the first DVD recording format released that was compatible with stand-alone DVD Players.
  • DVD-R is a non-rewriteable format and it is compatible with about 93% of all DVD Players and most DVD-ROMs.
  • DVD-RW is a rewriteable format and it is compatible with about 80% of all DVD Players and most DVD-ROMs.
  • DVD-R and DVD-RW supports single side 4.37 computer GB* DVDs (DVD-5) and double sided 8.75 computer GB* DVDs ( DVD-10).

DVD+R and DVD+RW

  • DVD+R is a non-rewritable format and it is compatible with about 89% of all DVD Players and most DVD-ROMs.
  • DVD+RW is a rewritable format and is compatible with about 79% of all DVD Players and most DVD-ROMs.
  • DVD+R and DVD+RW supports single side 4.37 computer GB* DVDs (DVD-5) and double side 8.75 computer GB* DVDs (DVD-10).

DVD-R DL

  • DVD-R DL (DVD-R9) is a Dual Layer writeable DVD-R. The dual layered discs can hold 7.95GB ( DVD-9) and dual layered double sides 15.9GB (DVD-18).

DVD-RAM

  • DVD-RAM has the best recording features but it is not compatible with most DVD-ROM drives and DVD-Video players. DVD Ram is considered a highly reliable format, as the discs have built-in error control and a defect management system. Therefore, DVD-RAM is perceived to be superior to the other DVD technologies for traditional computer tasks such as general data storage, backup and archivingl.
