Product: HP Notebook 15.6 Touch Screen 15-ay041wm
Is it possible to swap out the stock/internal DVD drive for a blu ray drive? There's nothing wrong with it, I would just prefer to be able to watch blu rays; my computer screen is compatible with blu ray modes/quality, if I were to hook up an external blu ray drive. But I'd rather have an internal one, if possible. Thanks!

The series does not have option for BluRay, it only has one option for
- Fixed, serial ATA, 9.5-mm tray load
- DVD+/-RW Double-Layer SuperMulti
Therefore you must find on market from third part products elsewhere and you need
- It supports SATA
- Has 9.5mm thickness otherwise won't fit
Regards.
