HD Digitech HDX BD-1

Although the BD-1 has room for a 3,5" harddrive we strongly suggest not to use this feature, since formatting the drive is not yet possible through the firmware. Our advice is to use the BD-1 via LAN or with an external harddisk.

The 1080p HDX BD-1 is a highly specified machine, and has numerous tricks up its brushed aluminium sleeve. Its most impressive talent is its ability to play movies from Blu-ray discs, as long as you attach an external Blu-ray drive to it.
