[QUOTE="xstep, post: 647370, member: 11647"] They help fit the drive in snugly. Sounds like what the Macbook Pro has. If you place them in the same way as they were on the old drive you shouldn't have an issue. My biggest worry is you putting the drive in upside down. That I wouldn't expect to work and maybe even damage the drive or the Macbook. As far as I know, you can't go reversing the pins to the connector. I can't remember, but shouldn't the connected be notched in a certain way that allows the drive to be connected only one way. There are several online guides including a video (in different sizes) at the bottom this [URL="http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/MacBook/DDR2/#vids"]Other World Computing page[/URL]. [/QUOTE]
