I should of put blueray in my original post, you got any ideas on one with blueray?

Just decide on this page, the ASUS one is probably great but cannot write blue-rays.  if you add $12.50ish you can gain the writing ability.

So I am planing on building a computer here soon and I was thinking if I had some extra money I would throw a optical drive in there too. But I don't really know much about them I can't really find A video explaining the speeds and standards that they have, so I was wondering what would be the best optical drive to get that supports all disk types and also writes.  Also Sorry if this is in the wrong section for this question. Also Internal 5.25 drives not external please.

if you want one, get one.  Simple as that, just go for a cheap unless you need a blue-ray drive.

ASUS DVD/CD Drive $13.34ish

For the Best builds and Price lists here is a world where many points of the price have been predefined already for your convenience!

The Xeon E3 1231 V3 IS BETTER Than the Core i5 4690K and a Significantly better value for the non-overclockers or value shoppers.

The OS is like a kind food, Try it before saying if you like it or don't.

How often will you be using an optical drive? I can tell you I don't think I've used one on well over 3-4 years.
