About this optical drive
An optical drive reads CDs and DVDs, and most can also write to them, while some handle Blu-ray discs too. Laptop versions are slim units that sit in a side bay and carry a bezel matching the casing; desktop versions are larger and fit a standard bay. A drive that is wearing out may refuse to read or burn discs, show repeated read errors, have a tray that sticks or will not open, or stop being detected by the system. A dirty lens causes similar faults, so try a cleaning disc before replacing the drive.
Is this the right part?
You will find the model and part number on the label on top of the drive. On a laptop, check the thickness and connector match, and move the bezel and mounting bracket over from the existing drive if they are not included. The manufacturer's part number for this listing is F2B56AA.
Not sure? Send us the number from the label, or your machine's serial number, and we will confirm the match before you order.
