Maxell launches world's first iVDR (Press Release)

According to a press release published at BusinessWire, Hitachi Maxell, Ltd. announced the launch of its Removable Hard Disk Drive iV, the world’s first iVDR standard hard disk drive capable of recording copyright protected High Definition (HD) content without quality loss. iVDR stands for "information Versatile Disk for Removable usage".

The small Removable Hard Disk Drive iV fits in the palm of the hand, and yet features a maximum capacity of 160 GB of data storage and a data transfer rate of 540 Mbit/s. Employing SAFIA(3) copyright protection technology, Removable Hard Disk Drive iV is a new iVDR-Secure type(4) media ideal for recording and transferring HD and SD (Standard Definition) content. Compatible with copyright protected content, Removable Hard Disk Drive iV is being launched for use with Hitachi’s Wooo flat-panel TV, which features the iVDR-compatible slot iV Pocket and is the world’s first appliance employing iVDR.

Maxell is to release an 80 GB model and a 160 GB model. Both come with storage cases.
