external Blu-Ray writer for MAC??

[AeroBar]

hi,

I had been considering getting an external Blu-Ray burner for backing up iPhoto, iTunes etc. - if I found a cheap one.

but I cannot find any Blu-Ray writers that specify MAC compatibility.
how can I know for sure?

cheers.

All of them are compatible. Also, use Toast 10 for advanced burning.

Hi,

thanks for responding.
but, what do you mean by "advanced burning"?

"the ability to burn at all"

You can't burn Blu-ray with straight OS X, so none are listed as compatible.

You can't burn Blu-ray with straight OS X, so none are listed as compatible.

so I won't be able to use iTunes back up option at all?

I'd have to Toast to copy those files?

Sorry I didn't reply sooner.

All Blu-ray burners work as a standard CD and DVD burners under iTunes and the Finder. To burn to Blu-ray discs you will need Toast until OS X supports native Blu-ray burning.
