[QUOTE="Stretch, post: 1376576, member: 25432"] Negative. Leave the HDD in the original location, and put the SSD in the optibay. Reason being the native 2.5 in drive mount is cushioned (it has rubber mounts), and the optibay is hard to the MacBook frame. Older MacBooks had an issue with this I believe, but new models don't. After the thunderbolt update, this was pretty much a non-issue, plus both SATA buses are now 6G. [/QUOTE]
