“Playing my Blu Ray movies on the Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 2 Pro I'd like to play my blu ray and regular Dvd movies on this Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 2 Pro but I don't know how since it doesn't have a blu ray/dvd drive. Can a Blu Ray Player be purchased that can connect to one of the ports such as the USB 3.0? Thank you in advance.”

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You have to purchase a seperate disk drive. I bought a LG that is compatible with MAC and Windows for $80 at Best Buy. It works great.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi, Yes you can play DVD's and blue rays but you will need to purchase an external player. We wanted to do this with our Yoga 2 Pro and purchased an LG 8x External USB 2.0 Bluray Disc DoubleLayer DVD±RWCDRW Disc Rewriter BP50NB40 at Best Buy for $69 on sale. This works great with the Yoga. Be aware though that the Yoga only has 2 USB ports. 1 of them is a USB 2 and the other a USB 3. The Blue ray players have 2 USB cords. The instructions on the blue ray said to try it with 1 cord and see if it works before connecting cord 2. The player did work with 1 cord so we were happy. We did purchase an Insignia 4Port USB 2.0 Hub Black NS-PCH5421 for $25 bucks at Best Buy to help overcome the USB port shortage on the Yoga. (I think 3 USB's should be standard. Not sure why they skimped on the 3rd port., Anyway, hope this helps!
