Sony BDX-S500U brings Blu-ray playback to notebooks and netbooks
While select notebooks do come with a Blu-ray drive, most netbooks out there do not even come with an optical drive. Either way, if you want to endow Blu-ray playback on your netbook or notebook (the former will need a pretty decent Atom processor as well as a Broadcom Crystal HD chip at the very least), Sony is offering you a way in the form of the BDX-S500U. This external Blu-ray drive is touted to be the right choice when it comes to fast, perfect writing on BD-R (6x), BD-R DL (4x), and BD-RE (2x) formats. Not only that, it also supports Blu-ray 3D – take that, PS3! Each purchase of the BDX-S500U will come with the Media Suite 8 software from Cyberlink that is useful for authoring, editing, data writing and back up. It will hook up via USB 2.0 and retail for around $200.
