NEC 3520-A What do I need to play a DVD movie on this drive?

Got some past burn in Documents. I no longer need them. OK to delete??

I just looked on new-egg they seem to have them, but not in silver. The case I have is silver and the NEC is silver, I would like to have everything match if possible. Any suggestions on other sites? By the way all media I have is TY from RIMA.
