Lite-On brings you the first external USB Blu-ray drive to use with your PC or laptop

Now that Blu-ray has officially won the next generation DVD war against Toshiba's HD-DVD format, consumers can buy hardware without possiblly buying the next Beta max.

The portable external Lite-On BD-ROM drive allows users to playback their Blu-ray discs on any PC via a USB 2.0 cable.

The Lite-On DX-4O1S can read Blu-ray Disc media at 4X, single-layer DVD at 12X, dual-layer DVD at 8X, and CD media at 32X maximum.
