Blu-ray Disc & HD DVD are the next generation in optical storage, offering 15GB to 30GB (HD DVD) and 25GB to 50GB (Blu-ray Disc) of storage capacity on a disc. Serial ATA is a 1.5Gbps evolutionary replacement for the Parallel ATA physical storage interface used to connect storage devices, such as hard disks, DVD and CD rewriters to the PC motherboard. Serial ATA is scalable, enables design of smaller PCs, and will allow future enhancements to the computing platform. Create silkscreen-quality disc labels direct from your PC with LightScribe.

The installation was as easy as plugging the cables in and screwing the drive in the bay. No drivers no nothing it works right out of the box and comes with all cables required. I already had Power DVD Deluxe, so all I needed to do was reboot the system and I was good to go. For those of you who do not have HD or Blu-ray software, it comes in the box as well (Power DVD, Power Producer, Power2Go, Instant Burn, Power Backup and BD Advisor) One of the easiest installations I've done. If Microsoft would only integrate Blu-ray and HD in MCE. 18 of 18 people found the following review helpful. Great player for HD-DVD an Blu-Ray By Chris Barker This works as advertised - you can play HD-DVD and Blu-Ray movies. Cyberlink software for playing both types of movie is included. The downside is that you need a computer to put it in to get a complete player, but this unit plus a computer is still cheaper than the other dual format players out there. 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful. Great Player but the SW is lacking... By Mike Geppert This player works great. But be warned that the software it comes with is a reduced capability version. It only supports 2 channels. You can go back to "CyberLink" and get a real version of PowerDVD for like $[...] and then you get everything supported. The next issue is that they stopped supporting HD so you need to make sure not to get the latest version but the version 7 stuff. That is a little tricky to find on their web site. Cyberlink Power DVD 7 Software Full Version (Not the latest version 7 but you get the idea) I got it from: https://secure.element5.com/esales/cart.html?PRODUCT[300134517]=1&languageid=1&cookies=1¤cies=USD,all But once I did that it works great on both HD and Blu-Ray disks. I only gave it 4 stars because I had to buy the software extra. I do have it running under Windows Vista Media Center, Onkyo 5.1 Stereo system (SW supports 7.1) and my Pioneer 50" Plasma. I do notice Blu Ray takes about 10% more CPU then the HD playing. See all 33 customer reviews...
