I thought i would throw that out there...pretty cool though, its from LG called the "Super Multi Blue". I'm not sure you can get this one in the states, i got it here in Korea. It burns DUAL LAYER Blu-Ray as well, and its massively quiet during play. Lookup model number BH08LS20 or LS30. I have the LS20, and i'm really satisfied.

Couple cons: Downloading updates...****! 98 MB for an update. It took me like 30 mins but its the principle of the thing.

Their little system tray update utility doesnt tell you much about firmware n stuff, usually a util like that would. And when you go to the LG site, good luck trying to find firmware, or software at all.

But it is a VERY sleek drive. The bezel at the front is a glossy black finish (on my version), but i didn't see a second if you wanted to change it out, like LITEON for example.

Check it out.

My "Dream Rig" that i'd like to buy if the money comes in how it has a chance too (if everything goes EXACTLY as planned) will also have a BluRay Burner.

I've had this one for a year and half.



I still haven't burnt a single blu-ray.

Sorry it took me so long to get back to this thread...(ModWar2)

Anyway, the burner from LG was about 215 after the Won-Dollar Conversion. As for what i would use it for...well the possibilities are endless. Even though i don't have the use for high-output video format on disc, i still have a f0ck-ton of blank dvd's that i can burn stuff onto. On top of that, this burner is DUAL LAYER, meaning that i could back up about 50 GiB of data onto one disc. For some people that is an entire C drive. Finally, blu-ray is really effing hard to scratch (unintentionally). I dropped "Iron Man" disc 2 on the sidewalk. No dings, no dents. little sand though. Don't try that unless you have a spare iron man blu-ray though. Simply put, an important system backup burned to blu-ray will have superior data integrity, and will not be succeptible to data loss.

And now Obsidian is a large effing monster.
