[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1463015, member: 56379"] Some folks wouldn't believe it…but I have a 2008 MacBook that I purchased fairly recently that had a bad hard drive. I have various laptop hard drives laying around (all fairly small capacity)…and I ended up installing a 30gig drive. Thus it's a 2008 MacBook, 30gig hard drive (14gig free), running OS 10.7.5. I basically only use this computer for internet surfing, e-mail, and some online gaming. When storage needs are managed properly…it's amazing how little hard drive storage space is needed.:) - Nick p.s. My 2011 MacBook Pro has a 750gig drive. Sheesh…lots and lots of room there!:) [/QUOTE]
