You have to take it out of the computer, and look at the top of the Drive, and it should say on there what the model is!

You can do this without taking out the LG drive.

Below are 2 ways you can see what Model # the drive is...

Use Nero Info Tool




Use ImgBurn



The drive must be one of the beow model #...

LG-8164b or LG-8163b or LG-8162b or LG-8161b

Alright you can do it without downloading any apps at all.
Goto Start, Control Panel, System, Click the Hardware tab, Device Manager, Click DVD\CD-Rom Drives and there it will give u the make and model. Then if you right click the DVD/CD-Rom drive and click Properties then goto The Details tab you will see something like this
IDE\CDROMPLEXTOR_DVDR__716A_____________________1.11__________\93842yusfa

IDE = The interface you use
CDROMPLEXTOR_DVDR_716A = The make and Model of your drive
1.11 = Firmware
93842yusfa = some garble that i dont understand lol
