Priced at $499 , the Forte’s 20x DVD±R/40x CD-R drive features an ample 25 disc input/output capacity, a 160 GB hard drive that stores up to 31 full size DVD images and dupes at rates of 7 DVDs, or 14 CDs per hour.

The Forte houses a rugged built-in fan for long lasting cool operation and professional grade robotics. Advanced control features offer users the option to duplicate CDs/DVDs in both single and multi master modes.
