When I click Device Manager>DVD/CD-Rom drives, ' ATAPI DVD A DH16A1P ATA Device' is displayed instead of brand name and model no.
When I examine the bottom of the drive,I can't see any brand name, the model no. shown is DH-16A1P.
How Can I know the brand name and model no?
What does 'ATAPI DVD A DH16A1P ATA Device' stand for?
I have a Acer Aspire M5600?

It appears that it has been used in Gateway and Packard-Bell computers. Packard-Bell has not made computers in the US in a very long time - but they still do in other foreign countries.This drive appears to be a generic drive, which means it could have been made by any number of generic disk drive companies in China, Taiwan, Japan, Singapore. It is probably a no-name brand, mass produced by the millions, as a low cost device to put into standard computers and it may even be made by several different companies based on one design.
An ATA device is an IDE drive. An ATAPI drive is just a drive that means the device can read or write a CD, complies with what is called ATAPI standards. The other part is just the model number.
There is nothing brand specific about this drive at all - so consider it a run of the mill generic device.

ya an ATA device is like your DVD drive or CD drive..
ATA - a computer bus is a storage-interface for connecting storage controllers (most commonly integrated into laptop computers and desktop motherboards) to mass storage devices (such as hard disk drives and optical drives).
Hopefully that helps
