For Delivery Blu-ray Drives

Ultra-high-quality media storage and super-fast reading and writing speeds combine in Blu-ray drives, which can play Blu-ray Discs™ and store movies, TV shows and other video files on blank Blu-ray Discs. Look for high-speed USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 connectivity for a super-fast, easy connection and a slim, portable design that helps the Blu-ray drive fit easily in your media tower or storage cabinet.

Read and Write Speeds

Generally ranging from 4x to 12x for Blu-ray Discs and up to 24x for CDs and DVDs, read, write and re-write speeds help estimate the length of time it'll take to record or burn information using a Blu-ray drive.

Internal or External

Internal Blu-ray drives install directly into a desktop computer or media center's CPU to create an integrated media-writing system, where access to your Blu-ray Disc drives is centralized with other drives (like CD/DVD drives).

A Blu-ray external drive is portable and ideal for travelers and on-the-go users. For other types of internal and external drives, consider CD, DVD and floppy drives.

Storage Capacity

Keep movies, TV shows, photos, documents and other important media ready by storing them directly on a Blu-ray drive. With storage capacities ranging up to 125GB or more, Blu-ray drives offer plenty of room for media that can be burned onto a blank Blu-ray Disc at any time. For a variety of other media storage options, consider data storage and media.

M-Disc Ready

M-Discs are an innovative and reliable way to store a variety of important media, from videos and photos to documents, medical records and other data. These storage discs offer up to 25GB of storage and are compatible with most Blu-ray drives. Look for the label "M-Disc ready" or "M-Disc compatible" to ensure M-Disc compatibility.

High-Speed Connectivity

External Blu-ray Disc drives often feature super-fast connection options, such as an HDMI port and USB 2.0 connectivity, that make it easy to hook up your drive to a compatible TV, laptop, tablet or other device.

Play Blu-ray Discs

Do you only need a Blu-ray drive to write data onto blank Blu-ray Discs, or do you want to play discs using your drive too? Some Blu-ray drives are generally used only for writing purposes, while other drives can be used to play Blu-ray Discs.
