New internal and external Blu-ray drives are being shipped by Other World Computing (OWC), designed for both Macs and Windows PCs. The prices start at $559.99 for internal drives and US$649.99 for external drives. For Mac users, OWC also offers the full version of Roxio's Toast 8 Titanium software with the drives.

The internal drive configuration is a standard IDE/ATAPI drive. The external drive features both USB and FireWire 400 ports to connect to the computer. Two 25GB (single-layer) Blu-ray media discs are included with the drives.



Blu-ray is currently outselling the HD DVD format in the United States, helped by the November launch of the PlayStation 3 (PS3) console.
