C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The name “Blu-ray” refers to the blue laser (actually a violet laser) used to read the disc, which allows information to be stored at a greater density than is possible with the longer-wavelength red laser used for DVDs.

Detailed explanation-2: -A Blu-ray disk is an optical storage device similar to CD and DVD technology. It also uses a laser to read and write to the disk, but instead of a red laser beam, as used in DVD and CD, it uses a blue-violet laser beam.

Detailed explanation-3: -Rather than using a red laser, a Blu-ray disk uses a blue laser, which significantly increases capacities and data transfer rates.

Detailed explanation-4: -Unlike CDs and DVDs, which use a red laser to read and write data, a Blu-ray disk uses a blue laser, which dramatically increases capacities and data transfer rates over CDs and DVDs.
