What drive (optical) is better?

For my SFF http://www.amazon.com/LG-Super-Mult...1KM6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1314891613&sr=8-1 or http://www.amazon.com/LG-Electronics-CT10N-Blu-Ray-Combo/dp/tech-data/B001TOD5E4/ref=de_a_smtd

I would say either would do fine, maybe lowest cost = better. Do you already have playback software?

You may be able to take the drive out of this external asus usb http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827135251 and get it for $70 AR, not sure if the drive is mini sata or atapi (IDE) though....

Might lose the warranty if you rip it out, for the few dollars I'd buy the non-usb one.

Both of those drives are reg. Sata, so that is good, no blueray movie player apps., but I won't really watch movies on my PC anyway.
