Fast copying (Maximum 12x)
Copying between DVD and HDD is a completely digital process and therefore involves no loss of quality in the audio or video. This means that you can transfer back and forth without having to worry about the quality getting worse with each copy ‘generation’. It also means that copying can be carried out at the maximum speed possible.
When copying from HDD to DVD, the speed of copying depends on the recording mode and the kind of DVD disc you’re using.
