Availability of the first storage systems with 100 GB BDXL technology Europe WINS. At the same time with the European availability of the first storage systems with 100 GB BDXL technology, the PoINT provides new versions of their products for the software support of the appropriate hardware (jukeboxes, Autoloaders and single skating works) software & Systems GmbH.

It describes a triple-layer Blu-ray disc (BD) with 100 GB capacity for recordable (write-once) and rewriteable discs (BD-R and BD-RE), as well as a four-layered with 128 GB for BD-R. With the new 100 GB BDXL technology doubled the storage capacity of Blu-ray disc, which already successfully established variant in the previously available 50 GB in the memory market. This particular Blu-ray used disc-based Jukebox systems increasingly for archiving in professional IT environments. The legal requirements on the archiving (compliance”) force more and more companies to put this issue into their IT infrastructure. If you would like to know more about Sotheby’s, then click here.
