Recycled, Apple branded Sony NEC Optiarc AD-5680H internal 12.5mm slot loading SATA superdrive. Note that the optical mounting frames in the iMacs are manufacturer specific and so this drive can only be used as a direct replacement for an existing Sony drive (unless you are prepared to trim off the tiny tabs along the leading edge of the frame).
Note that iMacs use manufacturer-specific optical bezels. Fitting this drive as a replacement for a different manufacturer (i.e. HL or Panasonic) you may need to trim several of the tiny tabs from the front edge of the bezel to ensure the drive sits correctly.
