BD-R XL MediaRange MR520 100GB 4X - Blu-ray recordable disc, single-layer XL capacity

MediaRange BD-R XL MR520 is a 100GB single-layer Blu-ray recordable disc with 4X write speed, designed for high-capacity data backup, archiving large media files and long-duration video recording. The BD-R XL format extends the storage capacity of a single disc compared with standard BD-R discs, allowing more files or longer recordings to be stored without disc changes. The disc is compatible with BD-R XL capable drives and recorders that support 100GB single-layer writable media.

Advantages

The format is suitable for offline storage and long-term archival when used with proper handling and storage conditions.
