Verbatim Double Layer Discs provide a massive 8.5GB storage capacity. The double layer of recording has been made possible by the creation of a new substrate layer that sits in between each recording layers, which allows the laser beam to record on both layers. Once the first layer has been recorded, the laser re-focused to record on the second layer.
