![]() They are also ideal for home DVD video recorders, where it is advantageous to have a rewritable format capable of digital video data speeds, while being removable, small, and relatively inexpensive. RW discs are used to store volatile data, such as when creating backups or collections of files which are subject to change and re-writes. Thus, many discs have the RW logo, but are not rewritable.Īccording to Pioneer, DVD-RW discs may be written to about 1,000 times before needing replacement. This can cause confusion because the ' DVD+RW Alliance' logo is a stylized 'RW'. Thus, "R" format discs are only suited to non-volatile data storage, such as audio or video. "R" format DVDs can be written once and read arbitrarily many times, whereas "RW" formats can be written to repeatedly. The dyes used in each case are different as they are optimized for different wavelengths. This is used in conjunction with a higher numerical aperture lens. The smaller focus is possible with a shorter wavelength 'red' laser of 640 nm, compared to CD-R's wavelength of 780 nm. These two changes allow more pits to be written in the same physical disc area, giving higher data density. The larger storage capacity of a DVD-R compared to a CD-R is achieved by focusing the laser to a smaller point, creating smaller 'pits' as well as a finer track pitch of the groove spiral which guides the laser beam.
