Blu-ray amateur

scottie

hi guy's. Hopin you can help me please, i have a Aspire V3-571G laptop,

and just wondering what type of blu-ray disc i have, is it a recorder or just a player?

i need to back up 120 gig of file's on my computer, like films music etc.

i found out the other day when i went to buy some disk's that its not as simple as the old days when you could just put in any dvds, this is the first time i have had a blu-ray disc, and not really sure what i have. lol.

i understand that there's different kind's like duel layer, triple layer and so on, and that i may not even have a recorder,

it says on my laptop that i have a blu-ray disc drive but thats all the info i have,

 

any help would be greatly appreciated,
