Review: 5.25" Slot Bload Blu-ray Burner

By Hugh Bennett(Posted Oct 14, 2009) - Most notably, DIGISTOR’s new 5.25" Slot Load Blu-ray Writer (SLBW) is the only half-height (HH) Blu-ray burning solution to employ a slot disc-loading mechanism. It’s also, by far, the physically smallest 5.25" unit I’ve ever seen.

Combine these with its respectable performance, the $375 DIGISTOR SBLW should be a good fit for everything from standalone kiosks and video surveillance systems to SMB servers and compact home theater PCs (HTPC).

No manufacturer has, so far, produced a true half-height (HH) slot load Blu-ray recorder. DIGISTOR met the challenge by taking matters into its own hands to create this unit by pairing a standard 12.7 mm laptop burner with a custom fabricated mounting sled and front bezel to bulk it to full size.
