A network-based real-time optic disc writer device has at least two disc writer assemblies and a monitoring unit. Each of the disc writer assemblies has a disc writer unit and host controller with a detection unit. The disc writer unit is electrically connected to the host controller and has a robotic arm, at least two disc writers, and an optic disc deposition zone. The at least two disc writers and the optic disc deposition zone are arranged at one side of the robotic arm to allow the robotic arm to selectively pick up and deposit optic discs and also to allow the at least two disc writers to perform continuous writing to optic discs. The monitoring unit communicates with the host controller of each of the disc writer assemblies, so as to enable ready communication through networks, real-time notification and monitoring and continuous, un-interrupted writing operation of optic discs.
