TSST Korea (Toshiba Samsung Storage Technology Corporation) announced today that it has completed the technical development of its Blu Ray Disc Drives.

These products for the Optical Disc Drive market offer a storage capacity up to 25GB at a single layer disc.

The enhanced design that was first incorporated into Samsung's External DVD Writer is being adapted to the Blu Ray Drive as well. Samsung's Blu Ray Drive has the sophisticated black and silver color design of a high-end A/V product that would look perfect even in a living room.

Like all the other Samsung ODD Drives, the Blu Ray drive is eco-friendly and supports Firmware Live Updates that allow users to ensure they always have the latest Blu Ray firmware version.

Samsung Electronics will launch internal and external Blu Ray drives simultaneously in 2006 under the Samsung Brand name through the Samsung Electronics distribution channel.
