Yes, it is very similar to the OptoRite DD0401. However, it doesn't seem to be a straight rebadge. The DRU-530A doesn't support HD-BURN and cannot write to 4x DVD+R media at 8x like the DD0401.

Sony, AccessTek & Lite-On Specs Look at the DVD & CD Random Access Times, they are all different.

Very nice price. I've got the DRU-510 right now.
