OS X (& FCS3/Toast11) Compatible BluRay Burner?

[stretchweider]

Any recommendations?

I've ignored BluRay for so long but clients are starting to request discs,
I'll be outputting from Compressor and burning in Toast 11 with BR plug in,
looking for an external drive,

Many Thanks

The only people I'd trust with this. Been doing business with them since the last century.

I'm quite happy with this one: LaCie d2 Blu-ray 12x FireWire | USB 2.0

I can't play the disks on my Mac, but that's not of particular concern as I prefer to watch on my standalone.

Regarding Toast 11, while the authoring options are very limited, it at least allows for manual chapter insertion that can be checked prior to burning or disk image creation.

Thanks for the Info guys,

Rumplestiltskin - I'm in UK so can't take of advantage of the shop you mention,

re:the Lacie Gspanos recommends - will I see much difference in burn times if I choose FW800 over USB2?

I haven't noticed much of difference in burn times between FW800 and USB2.

Thanks Gspanos - I'll take a look at the Lacie
