First, sorry if this has been mentioned before:
I emailed HIDEvolution re them removing the custom Blu-ray reader/writer option from the M14x, and Ted said: " because we found that the M14x uses a 9.5mm slotload drive (as opposed to 12.7mm as normally found on most laptops). A slotload Bluray drive in 9.5mm form factor does not exist at this time, so we have taken it off as an option on our site."
Perhaps this is why Dell does not offer Blu-ray in the M14x?
