Sharp will Introduce world’s First 100GB Triple-Layer Blu-ray Disc on 30th July
World’s first triple-layer Blu-ray Disc media featuring large 100GB recording storage capacity.Japanese electronics maker Sharp said Friday it will release a recordable Blu-ray disc named VR-100BR1 this month that can store as much as four seasons of a television drama series.The world’s first triple-layer disc has a capacity of 100 gigabytes, twice as much as the dual-layer discs now on the market.
Like most cool things, these discs will drop first in Japan on July 30.Sharp is expected to market the discs for $55 each(5,000 yen).
This disc media product conforms to the new BDXL™ format specification that extends the storage capacity of Blu-ray Discs to 100GB, twice the 50GB storage capacity of existing dual-layer discs.Boasting 100GB of storage space, the VR-100BR1 are labeled BD-R, meaning one-time writable discs. But each disc should be able to hold up to 12 hours of digital TV programming.However, buying these discs only seem worth it if you already have a Sharp BD-HDW700 OR BD-HDW70 Blu Ray Player since they’re the only models that will support the VR-100BR1 discs.
