Acronova Technology Launches Nimbie USB Plus with USB 3.0 Technology

North Brunswick, New Jersey — Acronova Technology, Inc. is proud to introduce Nimbie USB Plus NB21-BR as the world’s first disc autoloader with SuperSpeed USB 3.0 technology. Being compatible with the latest USB 3.0 interface, which allows transfer speed of 5Gbit/s, Nimbie USB Plus is capable of burning Blu-ray discs two times faster than disc duplicators with USB 2.0 interface.

Many applications rely on Blu-ray’s capacity for large amount of data or high-definition video, the current USB 2.0 transfer rate is slow for transferring such amount of data. By connecting Nimbie USB Plus to a USB 3.0 compatible PC, Blu-ray burning speed is two times faster.

“Nimbie USB Plus is the perfect solution for Blu-ray duplication. With it’s built-in USB 3.0 interface and Blu-ray writer, burning a 25GB Blu-ray disc at 12X takes only 12 minutes, that’s half of what it takes via USB 2.0.” Jessie Tsai, CTO of Acronova Technology, said. “Imagine how much time can be saved when duplicating 100 copies.” He added.

While Nimbie USB Plus offers breakthrough performace on Blu-ray burning, Nimbie USB Plus can also be used for many other applications such as ripping, back up, archieving and more. With 100 disc capacity, users can simply load the discs, and let Nimbie USB Plus do the work. As for PCs without USB 3.0 interface, Nimbie USB Plus is also backwards compatible with USB 2.0.
