    Dual layer= one side burn
    Dual sides= both sides can be burned

    Your burner has to support it to use DL.
    What are you trying to use the pricey DL to do?

    Thanks for your reply.
    I have in my notebook a Nec 6500A.I think that it burn Dual Layer DVD. My question is about Dual Layer DVD with 8 or 9 GB. A friend tell me that I need burn the DVD in two sides. It's possible burn one movie with 8GB in one side?
    Thanks

    First off I dont even think you can get double sidded Blank Media. I could be wrong but if never seen it.

    As of the most commen DVD Blank media out there...

    Single Layer = 4.7GB Burns 1 layer on 1 side.

    Double Layer = 8.5GB Burns 2 layers on 1 side.

    Hardeware -- What you will need to have is a DVD/DL compatible burrner. So you need to find out if your DVD burrner will burn the DL disc.

    Aplications -- Your burrning App will have to be compatible with DL burrning as well. Most burrning applications you get now days are compatible to do it.

    You can buy DL blank media and fit up to 8.5GB on 1 side. (it burns 2 layers on the same side)


    I looked up the NIC-6500A and if that is the drive you have then yes you can use DVD-DL media.
