Buffalo releases it's new 12X Blu-Ray Burner, Powered by USB 3.0


Pretty sure your computer doesn't support USB 3.0 plug, and there's no such thing as a 12x Blu-ray disc for mass consumption just yet, but not to worry regarding those specs in the way of progress. Buffalo just announced the BR-X1216U3, which is the "world's first"  12x Blu-ray burner, and which incidentally pulls off its wondrous feats through the power of USB 3.0. Of course, it's backward compatible with USB 2.0, for burn speeds up to 7x, but with 12x on the table that's just slumming it. The drive is now  available in Japan for 39,100 yen (about $448 US).
