From DVD to Blu-ray?

[shyarchangel]

It is possible to upgrade to blu-ray rom from a strandard dvd/cd rom on laptop without buying a whole new laptop? and what would be the cost of doing so?
I thinking about buying a new laptop without paying so much for the blu-ray now, but was hoping if i changed my mind, i can upgrade to blu-ray without buying another laptop.

Assuming you have a standard drive bay (I know some Dell's have unique ones) something like this should work fine. Probably not the best price though... They're still kind of a rarity... Or should I say luxury

An external one may be an option too. I tend to discourage external drives, but it may be cheaper in the long run.
