Buffalo Technology is now offering two Blu-ray DVD Combo drive solutions – the MediaStation 8x External Blu-ray drive (model BR-816SU2) and the MediaStation Internal Blu-ray drive (model BR-816FBS). Both drives offer 8x read/write speeds for BD-R media – making the drives some of the fastest out there today.

Both MediaStation drives support the following media types: Blu-ray BD-R 8x, Blu-ray BD-RE 2x, DVD RAM 5x, DVD –R 16x, DVD +R 16x, DVD-RW 6x, DVD +RW 8x, CD-R 48x, and CD-RW 24x. 

The external MediaStation connects to a PC via USB 2.0 or eSATA while the internal MediaStation connects using a SATA interface. You’ll get a Cyberlink software suite bundled with these drives which include applications such as PowerDVD, PowerDirector, Power2Go, PowerBackup, and PowerProducer.

Both drives will be available later this month with the MediaStation 8x External Blu-ray drive selling for $399.99 and the internal MediaStation 8x Blu-ray drive selling for $349.99.
