The LG Hitachi-LG GTC2N 6x DVD-RW Internal OEM Slimline Optical Drive (12.7mm) is a compact, high-performance optical drive designed for space-saving builds and media creators who need reliable disc burning.

Key Specs at a Glance

M-DISC Technology for Long-Term Data Protection

The GTC2N uses M-DISC technology, which etches data onto a rock-like surface rather than organic dye. This makes it far more resistant to degradation from light, humidity, and temperature extremes. For anyone storing critical files, photos, or archives, this is a proven upgrade over standard DVDs.

Silent Play for Quiet Operation

LG’s Silent Play technology detects the type of media being read and automatically adjusts the disc spin speed. During DVD or CD playback, this reduces operational noise significantly. It’s a practical feature for HTPCs, living room PCs, or any setup where quiet operation matters.

Super Multi-Compatibility for Flexible Media Use

This drive supports a wide range of disc formats, including DVD±R, DVD±RW, DVD-RAM, and CD-R/RW. Whether you’re burning a quick backup, reading an old CD, or using rewritable media, the GTC2N handles it without needing multiple drives.

Fast 8x DVD Writing Speed

With an 8x maximum write speed for DVDs, the GTC2N can burn a full disc in under 15 minutes. This speed is well-suited for both occasional users and those who need to process batches of discs efficiently.

Windows 10 Compatibility

The drive is fully compatible with Windows 10, ensuring plug-and-play operation on modern systems without the need for additional drivers or software.
