OK Dane, I think I actually get what she's asking. I kind of remember
hearing that if your mac has an internal optycal drive, then any external
drive won't be automatically detected. I'd completely forgotten about that.
So yeah, good point. I guess if it comes with drivers, you'd be OK though.
Chris.

Sorry? I don't get the question.
An installation of what, are you talking about OSX? In which case OSX
isn't installed from a CD these days.
If you're talking about the external drive discussed here? All one has to
do is to connect it and the appropriate software for the Mac to run with
the drive is installed.
The specific label states that the drive is Windows/Mac compatible.

Will the Mac recognize it during an installation? I remember that being a

I presume that this drive needs to be powered via an electrical

Oh, I know where to get bluray blank discs, that isn't the issue.
I'm just not sure about what drive to get that would be compatible
both with the Mac as well as with Windows.

Sorry about that, I forgot to include the model number so I'll go
and reference that and get back to you.
In Australia I know of a firm that sells Blu-Ray discs,
http://www.warcom.com.au and I'd imagine they ship internationally
or at least can put you in touch with someone who sells blank
Blu-Ray discs.

Dane,
Can you perhaps see if Amazon has this Samsung Bluray drive? I've
actually been in the market for one.
What I'd really like though are some blank bluray discs, and a full
on writer. Either way though, I won't complain.
Chris.
