Ritek touts 10 layer HD DVD, Blu-ray media
10 layer HD media? Yes ladies and gentlemen, we have it, and we owe it all to Ritek. Available in both HD-DVD and Blu-Ray flavours, these delicious discs offer up to 250GB of storage… Not bad a for a few inches of… well… whatever these new fangled discs are constructed out of. Who knows… perhaps corn? Back to the point, Ritek have really pulled a rabbit out of the hat with this one.
According to Engadget, we should all go and “forget single-layer media, that dual-layer stuff that was all the rage last year, and even the triple-layered discs that got announced just days ago.”
All-in-all, a major shock announcement! The fact that Ritek boasts that they can apply their technology to both HD-DVD and Blu-Ray is a nice little bonus too. No word on pricing or availability, but in your face, Toshiba.
