| Overview |
| Improved performance, combined with the
flexibility and compatibility offered, make the IBM 7210 Model 025 an
excellent solution for DVD-RAM and CD-ROM read and write requirements.
The 4.7 GB capacity of DVD-RAM allows storage of more data than
conventional CD-RW or CD-recordable media. Fast performance allows
quicker access to information, while downward compatibility provides
continued access to information on current CD-ROM disks. |
