Default Whats the difference between CD/DVD Burners and CD/DVD Drives?

Do CD/DVD drives read disks only and CD/DVD burners burn disk only?

Would the product below be able to read disks and burn disks as well? Sorry little confused about it.

Yes the drive you have picked out reads and writes CD and DVDs.
