    I’m about to order the new Mac Pro.

    I was thinking of getting an external Blu-ray burner, if there was a simple plug and play external Blu-ray burner that would be great.

    I’ve seen the Numac web site, is anyone using it? Or does anyone have other suggestions?

    Cheers,
    Neal

    I’ve had good experience using the Buffalo Technologies external usb Blu-ray burners – as well as making my own with an internal Pioneer BDR drive in a usb/esata enclosure.

    Hi Bill,

    Thanks for the reply, are you using a Buffalo Technologies external usb Blu-ray burner on the new Mac Pro? And did it simply plug and play (meaning read and burn CD/DVD/BR)?

    Yes – all my computers – MacPro, iMac, PC laptop recognized it immediately – I’ve used it with Encore, DVDSP, Toast, and Nero.

    Presently I use it with my PC, using the Pioneer Drive in the enclosure with my Mac Pro.

    Sorry Neal – I should have read your post more thoroughly – I don’t have a new Mac Pro – mine is a 2010 tower.
