NOTE: Some HP Media Center PCs come with the Double-Layer DVD Writer. It supports single-layer and Double-Layer DVD media. Double-Layer technology gives you greater capacity and allows you to store up to 8 GB* of data on double-layer DVD+R or DVD-R media.

Double-Layer is a new technology. Double-Layer media compatibility will vary widely with some home DVD players and DVD-ROM drives.

*1 GB is defined as 1 billion bytes when referring to hard disk drive capacity. Actual formatted capacity is less.
