Welcome, to the forum!

The H10A is a successor model to the 4167B. Both seem to follow the same product line. So, no, they are not identical. The H10A is so new, that it isn’t listed on some of LG’s websites.

More information on the drive can be found here :

The trailing “BB” at the end of the model number is usually just something added by most stores for stock taking purposes. It typically stands for something like “bulk, black”.

difference is that the LG GSA-H10ABB can write DVD+DL at 8x verses 6x on the 4167
