    I have a question for FW owners that come with a Blu-ray READER. What is the model number of the drive? It should be listed in the Device Manager. Please note that this question is for Blu-ray Reader only and not Blu-ray Burner.

    The reason I am asking is because Sony listed the burning speed of Blu-ray Burner for DVD DL is 4x while through my research, the burning speed is only 2.4x. Did Sony make a mistake or do they have a new faster model that I am not aware of?
