Well actually you got confused as I am not the guy who did say “disk drives”, that’s somebody else.

Whoops! Sorry. ^^"

I mentioned BluRays because that’s the only one that nowadays could make sense to have and could be common to add to a build, but not even that is being used commonly due to being expensive and basically only used by movies and those are usually played elsewhere.

I honestly don’t think most people would bother building a new PC with a normal disk drive, they are completely useless. New games/software/video/music are digital or use BluRays, except music I guess. And any other uses has been replaced with external USB drives or other mediums as those are better in many ways. So unless you have some specific need it’s worthless and if you have a need a external USB disk drive is more practical.

I wouldn't say they're completely useless, but I can agree with enough of what you're saying to at least respond with a simple "that's fair." :)
