    Question CD/DVD, card reader and USB hub "all in 1" - 5.25 inch internal bay?

    Just sheer brilliant! I want it!

    Where can I buy this,. or something similar?
    Has anyone seen this object in stores, online or retail?

    I suppose it's possible to just buy a 5.25 inch bracket and then fit in a slim dvd, and 3.25 inch card reader in the bay,. but the above is just all you need in 1 thing.
    I must have it!

    I don't know & haven't got a single game that's released on blu-ray, and i never buy or rent movies, so,. no. blue ray seems pointless.
    If it supports all 3 format im all fine with it,. but i'm not interested in paying 20 bucks extra for it either,.

    Blue ray is a pretty useless tech as far as I'm considered.
    It's not HVD,. and they're working on 3D stuff on crystal that's pretty much 2 TB per disk or more.

    DVDs are just as pointless as Blu-Ray. I havent had a media drive in any computer ive owned other than my HTPC (which is just a happy accident, as that model of Mini shipped with a DVD drive) in almost 10 years. Havent once needed one either.

    basically, im getting a card reader - but if im using the 1 slot, i rather have "more stuff" in that 1 slot than just a card reader.
    and since im still sporting a massive shelf full of cds and dvds,. a dvd reader seems the logical choice.
    Or a USB hub,. but heck i got that in my keyboard AND monitor already :P

    Blu-ray handled by a stand alone player hooked into my home cinema system, so Blu ray drive for PC is redundant.
    I was planning on getting a new drive for my PC, but I am going to wait till I can get my hands on one of these
