[QUOTE="ethan_zhang, post: 1493908, member: 293328"] [b]Same problem with my MBP. But already solved.[/b] Same problem with my MBP. But already solved. For adding a SSD driver, I've removed the internal optical driver and placed SSD in where the HD belongs, and put the HD driver in where optical driver belongs with a extra HD shelf. Then the nightmare begins. I try to use the general optical driver from Macbook,well, it's a external driver now, to install WIN8 by bootcamp, but after MBP reboot, the screen is black only a cursor is flashing. Well, external driver does not work, then I tried USB driver, it shows "no bootable disk" after reboot. The only way you can do is unassembled your MBP, and return your optical driver to seat.
