http://cr4.globalspec.com/blogentry/11472/ TeknologikL from CR4 shows you how to modify your Popcorn Hour C-200 to install a Blu-ray optical disc drive and a 3.5 desktop hard drive. The only extra piece you will need is a U-bracket for attaching a 3.5 hard drive to a 5.25 optical drive bay.
well made and very instructive video ! Unfortunately this solution wouldn´t work with my unit as I have installed a large passive copper heatsink...

@Johnny87Au The bracket doesn't come with the popcorn hour but you can pick them up at a computer retailer for around $8 check out newegg and search for 3.5" bracket.
Sorry youtube doesn't allow links in comments.

you'll also need some longer screws to be able to screw your U-bracket back into the bluray drive

Thanks for this video. Really helped and gave me the confidence to install a bluray drive into my c-200.
Coincidentally, I'd gone out and bought the LG Super Multi Blue too...then again, it does seem to be the best internal bluray drive on Amazon.
Cheers!

since i got a bluray drive in my laptop i plan on just ripping them and dumping them to the HDD this is good for ppl not wanting to spend too much money on a BD player.
I got a PS3 for that in the first place. but as a media player than plays everything and this ...surely a bonus feature.
I hope Xtreamer can ad a update for that aswell when USB Bluray Drives come out hopefully with no Region Locking.
