At the end of September Buffalo and I-O Data will both start selling drives that add the ability to write Blu-ray disks to the above hardware. BD-RE rewritable disks can be burned at 2x speed and BD-R write-once disks at double that. HD DVD functionality is limited to playback only in both cases and all models can handle DVDs and CDs.
Pricing for the top-end kit is ¥74,800 (£328) for the Buffalo USB drive. There's no word on availability outside Japan from either company.
