You need BluRay player software. If you do not have it, this unit will play CDs and DVDs on the players that work for those, but you need BluRay software to play BluRays.Jim

Hi there - short answer is yes - just hook it up and it'll play any DVD - I play discs from both UK and US on my US TV and they work fine

Yes this will play any cd,dvd, bluray. It will also burn all of those. I burn bluray movies and it works great. You will need to purchase the SATA connector wire separately, see link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009GUX8YK/ref=oh_details_o09_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

first of all, DVD is one thing and Bluray is another, but to answer your question.. no, it only has a DVD player, and honestly wouldnt expect other way for a budget laptop

Yes, they all play regular dvd's, not just blurays. If you only have a 720p/10801 television, then the bluray player will output the pic at that level. You may have to adjust the settings, but it will still out output it at 720p/1080i

I do not believe this one does. I remember seeing an option from DeLL about BluRay.

you can have it checked. if the drive bay is 9.5mm it should work. it worked with my gateway computer. and i love it. now i can play and burn blu-ray.

No. It plays BluRay just fine as long as you have a program that can play BluRay. Windows media player can not and if this is all you have installed to play discs with than the disc will show as blank. I have PowerDVD from CyberLink installed and my machine plays BluRay just fine.

It cannot play bluray movies without additional software such as PowerDVD - $50. It burns regular DVDs and CDs with free software such as ImgBurn.

It should work just fine but if your computer is still IDE and you should also look into getting a better graphics card for your computer for it to play blu-rays and you can find ones that will work just fine on amazon for around $25-$50

I don't see any reason why not, assuming you have the proper drivers for the bluray.

It'll work, but I think you would be a lot happier with its performance if you increase your RAM (to at least 4GB; even higher, if you can afford it). I would imagine your computer might struggle playing/burning Bluray with only 2GB (if that's what you're going to use it for).

Yes this will play any cd,dvd, bluray. It will also burn all of those. I burn bluray movies and it works great. You will need to purchase the SATA connector wire separately, see link: Monoprice 108782 18-Inch SATA 6Gbps Cable with Locking Latch, Blue

The short answer - no. It does not have a cd rom, blu ray, or dvd drive. Having said that, you can purchase a stand alone drive and usb it to the laptop.
