Do you have a white or black MacBook or a 15" MacBook Pro with the original combo drive? Or perhaps an older 4X or 6X optical drive in it that's just not fast enough anymore? How about being able to burn dual-layer discs? This replacement Super-MultiDrive is just what you're looking for!

"I thought it was the end of my trusty MacBook Pro when my DVD went out with a clunk.
45 minutes after the OWC replacement drive arrived, I was back in business again!"
