The d2 Blu-ray Drive from LaCie is an external Blu-ray disc burner that can also burn and read DVD and CD discs. It connects to your computer via either the FireWire-400 or USB 2.0 interfaces. The drive allows you to write data to single- and dual-layer Blu-ray discs, which can hold up to 50 GB of data; more than 10 times that of a standard DVD-R. These high-capacity discs are ideal for data archiving, backup and HD video delivery.

Professional HD Video Recording
The drive has been designed to facilitate professional HD video recording. A 50 GB Blu-ray disc can store approximately 4 hours of HD video, making it an ideal solution for video archiving or as a delivery mechanism to transfer a project to a mastering facility. Video can be compressed using MPEG-2, AVC or VC-1 codecs, allowing you to share HD video with your customers in stunning quality.
Multimedia Features
Blu-ray delivers up to 8 channels of audio at 192 kHz/32 streams quality. This gives you high-quality audio to match the video quality that Blu-ray can deliver.
Data Archiving and Backup
Blu-ray allows you to archive large amounts of data at an attractive cost per GB rate. Making backups of your computer on Blu-ray is also time-saving as compared to DVD; you won't be constantly swapping out discs to create backups of your system. The discs feature a scratch-resistant coating on the surface to help protect data integrity for years to come.
Dual Interface
The drive can be connected to a computer via FireWire-400 or USB 2.0. This allows you to add Blu-ray burning capability to almost any modern computer.
Backwards Compatibility
The drive not only reads and writes single- and dual-layer Blu-ray media, but it is also fully compatible with DVD and CD media. The drive reads and writes CD-R/RW discs and single- and dual- layer DVD-/+R/RW discs as well.
Software Bundle
The burner is bundled with Easy Media Creator 8.2 and PowerDVD BD for Windows for disc burning and DVD video playback. Toast 7.1.1 Titanium is included for OS X, giving Mac users the ability to burn Blu-ray discs.
