About Sony ODSD280U

From the professional photographer to the small-scale production studio, the ODSD280U Optical Disc Archive Stand-Alone Gen 2 USB 3.0 Drive is a robust and reliable solution for long-term digital asset management. This cutting-edge archival system connects seamlessly to both Macintosh and Windows computers via a high-speed USB 3.0 interface, ensuring a smooth and efficient workflow.

The drive's compatibility with Optical Disc cartridges allows users to view their stored data as a single volume, creating a user-friendly desktop solution for safeguarding critical files. With impressive transfer speeds, the drive boasts an average read rate of 2 Gbps (250 MB/s) and an average write rate of 1 Gbps (125 MB/s) with verification, making it a time-saving asset for busy professionals.

Durability is a key feature of this system, offering both write-once (WORM) and rewritable media options.

Additionally, it allows for the import and export of metadata created within the cartridge unit.

The high-capacity disc structure of the ODSD280U is a technological marvel, featuring six discrete recording layers and the ability to record on both land and groove, which significantly increases storage capacity per disc. Sony's innovation shines with the world's first 8-channel optical drive unit, equipped with four laser head assemblies that contain two heads each.
