I just received a new computer from Dell. I am trying to identify what burner it has but there is not much info about that drive.
HL-DT-ST DVD +/- RW GSA-H73N.
What drive is this?
Is it a good one?
Should I replace with the BenQ 1620 that is in my old computer or keep the Benq as a back-up?

Your dvd burner is a SATA LG drive.
