Unfortunately, my iBook's internal DVD/CD Superdrive has succumbed to the MATSHITA DVD-R (UJ-845E) drive of death routine - seemingly experienced by many other innocent and unsuspecting iBook owners. Can anyone recommend a replacement internal drive - which will fit seamlessly into the iBook? Thx in advance.

^o^

Find your model on the left hand side and see what'll fit, you can always try to find it cheaper elsewhere, then check out the guides section for how to install it.
