I don't have a Mac with an internal drive to try this any longer though
I can't see why it wouldn't be detected though perhaps not in the
boot-up stage as used to be the case quite some time ago.

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.

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 problem with non-blu-ray drives.

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.
