My SXPS 16 arrived today!

But how do I check whether dell gave me the right optical drive or not?
My specs includes the blu-ray ROM

The current driver name is "HL - DT - ST DVDRWBD CA10N ATA Device"

If you launch My Computer you'll see your optical drive as BD-ROM Drive (X:) where X is your drive letter.
The hardware name for my Blue-Ray drive is listed as "Optiarc DVDRWBD BC-5600S ATA Device".

I noticed the new BIOS will regulate the fan speed more efficiently, instead of blasting it all the time.
