I think Device Manager calls it a Toshiba SD-C2402 which sounds pretty 
generic:

The combo drive looks a bit expensive for a computer I don't intend to use 
for all that long.  It is starting to slow down noticeably, which no amount 
of defragging, scandisking, sfc /scannowing, Norton Win Doctoring, spybot or 
adawareing can help: It just cant seem to release its memory when I close an 
application down so I suppose I will dump this one soon.  But not with a 
bust DVD drive: The Toshiba LOOKS pretty generic: Can I assume that the 
connectors are all the same on the back assuming I replace the faceplate 
with the one I take off the present one?
