    The title says it all but I have been trying to find a slot-loading 9.5mm blu ray drive and it SUCKS! Apparently, no one makes one. Is it just a physical impossibility combining blu ray components and slot loading mechanism? I may cry if it's true!

    I have actually seen a 9.5mm TRAY loading BD-ROM but no slot load. I am really surprised none exist yet...
