24x DVD burner for 5.25-inch bays
The Lite-On DH-24AAS is a tray-load optical drive that fits a standard 5.25-inch bay and connects through a SATA interface. It writes DVD+R and DVD-R media at 24X, handles dual-layer discs at 12X and records CD-R at 48X. A 2MB buffer helps sustain steady write performance.
Suited for archiving and legacy media.
This drive suits users who need to read or write CDs and DVDs on a modern desktop, create bootable install discs or access older archives. It is not aimed at buyers who require Blu-ray support, faster than 24X DVD writing or a slot-load mechanism for space-constrained builds.
Handles single and dual-layer DVDs plus CD media
The unit comfortably writes single-layer DVD+R and DVD-R at 24X and dual-layer DVD+R DL and DVD-R DL at 12X. DVD-RAM recording reaches 12X while DVD+RW and DVD-RW rewrite at 8X and 6X respectively. CD-R and CD-RW top out at 48X and 32X. Read speeds peak at 16X for DVD-ROM and 48X for CD-ROM.
