    If I want a USB BR drive, what is the best kind and where should I buy it. How much should I expect to pay? Thanks.

    Thanks, so it looks like it's a reader only? Not CD or DVD write? That's fine if it's not just to clarify. From the specs it doesn't look like it writes anything. What about an internal laptop BR drive? I most likely would only use it at home, but you never know.
