    Is it possible in the future to be able to upgrade the DVD writer to bluray in the Z right now if you only have the DVD writer now?

    Yes you can upgrade to Bluray provided you can obtain the correct drive through Sony or otherwise.

    Is the DVD drive a standard 9.5mm high SATA drive, or even thinner?
