Compatible Optical dvd writer types

[daveiw100]

I have a problem with the optical dvd writer in my 610-1100uk desktop pc, which I would like to replace 

Current model is TS-T633. HP part number 513197-800.

I have seen model TS-L633 listed on eBay, and other models which look very similar

Could somebody confirm if TS-L633 is a suitable replacement for TS-T633.

What is the difference between them?

Which other models are compatible with TS-T633, that could be used as a direct replacement?

@daveiw100, Welcome to HP Support Community. 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you. 
You're looking to replace the optical DVD writer in your HP TouchSmart 610-1100uk Desktop PC, currently using the TS-T633 model (HP Part Number: 513197-800). Let's clarify compatibility and help you find a suitable replacement.

Is TS-L633 Compatible with TS-T633?

Yes, TS-L633 is generally compatible with TS-T633. Both are Slimline SATA DVD±RW drives commonly used in HP desktops and laptops. The key differences are usually in firmware and OEM branding, but mechanical and electrical interfaces are the same, making TS-L633 a suitable replacement.

However, to ensure full compatibility (especially with HP BIOS and mounting), it's best to match the HP part number when possible. If TS-L633 is not HP-branded, it may still work, but features like bootability or diagnostics might be limited.

Other Compatible Models

You can look for these models as direct replacements:

• HP Part Number 513197-800 (TS-T633)
• HP Part Number 481537-800 (TS-L633)
• HP Part Number 581600-001 (GT30L)
• HP Part Number 581606-001 (GU10N)

These are all Slimline SATA DVD±RW drives used in HP desktops and all-in-ones.

Replacement Steps

Here’s a step-by-step guide to replacing the optical drive:

1. Power off and unplug your PC.
2. Place it on a clean, static-free surface.
3. Remove the back panel using a Phillips screwdriver.
4. Locate and disconnect the optical drive (SATA and power cables).
5. Unscrew and remove the old drive.
6. Insert the new drive and secure it with screws.
7. Reconnect cables and replace the back panel.
8. Power on and check if the drive is recognized.

I hope this helps. 

Take care and have a good day.
