Do you have a Apple iBook G4 and want to upgrade your drive from either a Combo drive (not able to burn DVDs), or have an older, slower SuperDrive? This upgrade is exactly what your iBook G4 needs! It even offers the ability to burn Dual Layer discs!

The OWC Mercury iBook G4 SuperDrive is compatible with any Apple iBook G4, 12" or 14" model.

This is the exact same type of Dual Layer SuperDrive that Apple uses! You can install it into your iBook G4 yourself - but unless you're technically adept, OWC highly recommends professional installation. We offer this service with two types of shipping service - overnight, and 2nd day at reasonable prices. Click here for those options.


The OWC Mercury SuperDrive drive offers the best of all worlds when it comes to compatibility. The OWC Mercury SuperDrive features:
