About these units
DVD (2 layer, 1 side) (DVD (2L, 1S))
A dual-layer, single-sided DVD stores 8.5 GB using a semi-transparent layer that allows the laser to focus at two depths. This innovation enabled longer movies, higher-quality video, and special editions packed with supplemental content. Dual-layer DVDs became standard for commercial video distribution and professional data storage. Although burning DL DVDs at home was initially slow and expensive, they played a crucial role during the transition to higher-capacity optical storage.
CD (80 minute) (CD (80 min))
The 80-minute CD expanded storage to 700 MB, offering a modest but meaningful increase over the 74-minute version. This capacity became the industry standard for audio production, software, and media distribution. The slightly denser data-spacing required careful calibration but proved reliable for most computer and consumer hardware. For many users, CD-R and CD-RW discs became a primary means of personal backups, music burning, and long-term storage before USB drives became widespread.
