Xbit Labs claimed that Toshiba-Samsung Storage Technology Corp has signed a contract to build the external drives, with the cost rumoured to be between $100 and $150 (£58 - £87)

Microsoft has yet to confirm the reports, but has consistently denied rumours of a Blu-ray drive, claiming that storage discs will become a thing of the past.
