Hi. I have a Cyberpower Fangbook 4 SK-X17 G-Sync Gaming Laptop. The "mechanical clone" for this white label laptop is an MSI GT 72S 6QE Dominator Pro G.
The Fangbook came with an internal 9.5mm DVD-R drive, and I'd really like to swap it out for a Bluray drive instead...just for watching Bluray discs.
Other than the 9.5mm size, is there anything else I need to consider? I assume with modern laptops (this rig is about 2 years old) all the SATA connections would work. The bezel on the existing drive is removable. Is there a chance the mobo wouldn't somehow support a Bluray drive or something weird like that?
OR would I be better off getting an external USB Bluray drive for it? The thought of lugging around another piece of tech is not something I'd prefer though.
Thanks for any thoughts.
