Blu-Ray drives that rock for lasers

[badhorsey]

I'm considering getting a few Blu-Ray drives to take apart for the diode-y goodness within.

Any recommendations for bulk (well, around five) buys? I'd rather have the drives than the assemblies since I'd put at least one of them into my PC...

Go to Laser Pointer Forum and check out the threads on bluray lasers.There is tons of info on this.

If you haven't already gone over to LPF to check this out. let me add my voice to the recommendation. You don't really want to waste money on a whole drive do you? That would be silly when you can get the laser pick-up sled alone. There are people there with the sleds available.

Then just buy one of whatever you want in your computer.

Peace,
