[QUOTE="JNK123, post: 1528271, member: 258985"] I have a MacBook (a1181) and when I try to insert disks into the optical drive, they go in, the drive makes some noise like its trying to read the disk, then spits it back out. I tried this with several disks. Next I plugged in an external hard drive, and the MacBook wouldn't even detect the disks from that drive. I originally thought the optical drive had to be replaced, but now that the external drive does not work either, I'm a bit puzzled. [/QUOTE]
