I was just wondering if any MBP owners have replaced their optical drive with another HDD (SSD or SATA)
I know that the new macbook disk drives are SATA now and I was considering doing this.
I dont use the optical drive anyway, and have been considering upgrading to SSD since I bought the machine. Now Im thinking that I could leave the stock 500GB drive where it is and load the OS on to an SSD inside the macbook for faster boot up and so on, rendering the old drive for storage use, etc.
is this a good idea? any other thoughts?
