Asked by: gchw
Laptop CD/DVD and Blue-ray drives come in three different sizes, 7.5mm, 9.5mm, and 12.7mm. The LG 9.5mm Height Ultra Slim Internal DVD Writer Drive, Model # GS40N as indicated in the title description is a 9.5mm drive. You can either measure your current drive to determine what size you need or open your control panel > Hardware & Sound > Device Manager & click the triangle next to DVD/CD-Rom Drives to see what type of drive you have in your laptop. You can then look its specifications up on the internet to see what size it is. UYou can also contact your laptop's manufacturer for advice on what size will fit in your unit...^IFV
