According to Cnet, this has a BD Writer: http://www.cnet.com/laptops/asus-n56vz-xs71-15/4507-3121_7-35387435.html I just called Asus support however, and the person I spoke to said they have no record of the XS71 model but Cnet is pretty legit. The support guy could have been wrong.

This disc drive did not work on a Lenovo Thinkpad with an OS of Windows 7. This disc drive needs a power source that the Lenovo Thinkpad did not adequately supply and thus I returned the disc drive. The sellers of the disc drive were very good about communicating with me through several e-mails about the nature of the problem and made several suggestions about how to deal with it. When all attempts failed, they realized this drive was not compatible with the computer and were great about taking it back for a full refund. I do not know enough about the U310 Ideapad but be sure it can supply the power needed to operate this disk drive. This disc drive did not work on a Lenovo Thinkpad with an OS of Windows 7.

Mine has the Reinstall DVD for Windows 7 64 bit, and another DVD for drivers. What I really wanted to ask was for the Restore DVD -- a DVD that will restore the laptop to its original, out of the box state. However, none of the included DVDs provide that, not even the reinstall DVD and driver DVD. I emailed dell support and they agreed to provide me with a replacement drive to assist with my restore process.

Yes, I replaced the HD with a 256 Samsung EVO (not pro) for around $150 on Amazon. I also swapped the 4GB RAM stick for an 8GB PNY RAM Stick... usually around $60-$65. These upgrades speed the laptop considerably!

Sorry, I don't know. And I can't look for that hard drive with a serial number, I'd need the model number. If memory serves, and it has been quite a while since I bought this (for a HD at work and I've now retired) it is a circular plug which, as the ad states, provides 12V.

nope, your drive should be fine. These used to be shown as being OEM (NOT Retail packaging) shipped drives, but I don't see that now. So, if you were expecting a retail box, then return it; otherwise there are no differences.

This device will not burn BD-Rom. It will burn DVD/CD and I have have not had any issues reading Blue Ray discs. Hope this helps to answers your question. Also a link to the Asus Website https://www.asus.com/Optical_Drives/BC12B1ST/#overview

Dear soumik: you have to replace the generic ram and it would be able to upgrade up to 8Gb 1333 Mhz ( http://support.toshiba.com/support/staticContentDetail?contentId=4005071&isFromTOC;Link=false). Second to tear apart is relative what is easy or hard for you, anyways here a link with a small tutorial (http://www.laptopscreen.com/English/model/Toshiba/SATELLITE~C55-A5105/) I hope this would help.

It is replaced by the second graphics card. There is no CDROM/DVD/BR drive at all. It has an ultrabay slot that supposedly Lenovo will offer a quick swap DVDRW drive eventually but it has not shown up yet.

I'm trying to get a charger and running into the same problem. Does your number start with a B too? I do have the box and the camera and the serial numbers are the same. It's a camera, not a laptop, why can't HP look it up by the model number? It's not like they have different configurations.

Mine was for a Toshiba but it already died. Wish I would have spent the extra couple dollars and bought the non-OEM version.

A refurb or used model might have been owned by companies or corporations for the use of business and depending on that company, they may have ordered it with Cd burner with DVD Rom (basic, or with both cd/DVD burner or (if you hit the jackpot, Blue ray burner! (those burners cost the company 1200 as an option to the 2,000 dollar laptop. If the refurb company did not take the burners out, you may get at least a DVD rom and CD burner.
