Do you own a first (or second) generation Apple PowerBook G4 Titanium? Do you like to burn CDs? Watch DVDs? We know you do! But, most of us "early adopters" and our original PowerBook G4 systems don't have that luxury unless we tote around bulky external drives. Until now, that is!

Upgrade for ANY PowerBook G4 15" 'Titanium' Model (400/500/550/667/867MHz &1GHz) that has a the CD+DVD-Rom Drive (Read only - no burning capability). This is the exact same type of combo that Apple uses! You can install it into your PowerBook yourself - this drive includes detailed step by step instructions for you to accomplish the task without having to pay a dealer to install it. If you would like professional installation, OWC offers that service (for more information, please contact us for details). However, if you can change the hard drive (which, Apple's manual already covers), you can do this too!
