Seems like Blu-Ray is the next best thing to sliced bread and Aleratec tends to agree. The 1:3 Copy Cruiser Blu LS features a LightScribe-enabled SATA Blu-ray burners that can toast BD-Rs at 6x as well as vanilla DVDs and CDs at higher speeds as well as a built-in eSATA connector and a dual channel eSATA host adapter. The only bummer with this awesome Blu-Ray disc duplicator is the high price of $3,199.
