Verbatim 96159 CD-R 700MB, 52x, 80 Minute UltraLife Gold

Overview:

CD 96159 archival capability without sacrificing compatibility? Verbatim UltraLife™ Gold CD-R is the answer. Using proprietary dual reflective layers, these discs are designed to last up to 100 years when properly stored. Verbatim’s proprietary dual-reflective-layer technology is comprised of a silver layer for compatibility and a gold layer for long archival life. The highly-reflective silver layer allows the disc to appear as a standard silver CD-R to drives and recorders, while the gold layer prevents oxygen from corroding the silver reflective layer. Silver oxidation is a primary factor limiting the lifetime of standard CD media .The Verbatim UltraLife Gold Archival Grade CD-R 80 Minute, 700MB, 52x Recordable Disc (Spindle Pack of 50) is a write-once disc using the Dual Reflective Layers (DRL) surface coating to maximize both compatibility and longevity. The dual reflective technology is comprised of a silver layer for broad compatibility and a gold layer for long archival life. This layer provides a low initial error rate, important for long archival life, and has the same drive read/write compatibility as standard silver-only discs. The gold reflective layer is naturally resistant to corrosion. The gold layer overlaps the silver layer and prevents oxygen from coming through the lacquer layer or edge of the disc and corroding the silver.
