Plextor LLC, a leading developer and manufacturer of high-performance digital media equipment, today announced the PX-755UF DVD+/-R/RW CD-R/RW drive. The new Plextor burner is designed for businesses, consumers, and professionals who demand industry leading performance and reliability. Bundled with PlexTools Professional software premium features, the latest Plextor drive achieves high-quality recording at optimum speeds using any media.

The new PX-755UF DVD/CD drive is the first Plextor external drive to feature 10X DVD+R Double-Layer recording speed. Users can quickly burn up to four hours of high-quality MPEG-2/DVD video on a single 8.5 GB disc using 10X DVD+R Double-Layer media (or 6X DVD-R on Dual Layer media).

“The PX-755UF is a versatile device that boasts not only industry leading recording speeds, but also premium software features that enable users to fine-tune their recordings for maximum quality and speed,” said Michael Arbisi, vice president of channel sales for Plextor. “The fact that the external drive has a dual FireWire-USB interface means that it can be easily shared around a small office or professional studio.”
