    Is it possible to purchase/add an aftermarket BlueRay dvd player that would fit in the Precision m4400? I may be getting one through work, but noticed that there are no options available for this item.

    Any m4400 owners with Blue Ray dvd players?

    Even I am looking for something like that. But, judging from the fact that this was announced more than a year ago and still not in production, I think it might not come out untill Blu-Ray replaces DVD-RW as mainstream drives.

    We need several manufacturers to be producing the drives, in order to get more competition. When DVD drives first arrived there was a big price premium over CD. That has progressively shrunk to almost nothing.

    You can put an after market blu ray player by removing the surrounds of your present drive and attaching it to a bare drive
