Should i add a Blu-ray player to my Laptop (HP DV6T QUAD EDITION)?

Zane Bloun

i am about to purchase my customized HP Laptop through their website. one of the customization options is to add a blu-ray optical drive. should I? is it worth the $75?

Answer
If you are in the USA, first read about owner surveys of their laptops and ignore the overpriced macbook:

Then go to Lenovo.com and compare the DV6T to a Lenovo Y580 IdeaPad - 59345717 - Dawn Gray: $999.00
I don't see a DV6T Quad addition offered at their web site, but when I have tried configuring up options to match the Y580, I could not get the the graphics level and the overall price was $300 higher and quality no better.
Getting a blu ray is a choice. Do you watch many blu ray movies on your laptop, or connect to a TV without a bluray player?
The $1000 Lenovo is:
3rd Generation Intel Core i7-3630QM (Faster than 3632)
15.6" 1080p display
GTX 660M 2GB graphics:

There are cheaper models around.

ACER 5920 LAPTOP BLU-RAY PROBLEM!!10points!!!?

Answer
Are you sure the player in your laptop is a Blu-Ray player?

I looked up the Acer 5920 online and according to the specs, it has an HD DVD / DVD-RW drive, not a Blu-Ray drive.

HD DVD is/was a competing technology and is not compatible with Blu-Ray discs.

Do you have a Blu-Ray set top player that you could test the disc in to rule out a bad or dirty disc?

If you're 100% positive that the laptop has a Blu-Ray drive and not just a DVD or HD DVD drive then try to play the disc in a set top player or another computer that has a Blu-Ray player

If the disc can be read without problems, then I would say your laptop player has a hardware problem and you should have it checked out by a technician.
