[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 982993, member: 8287"] First let me ask you. Did You flash the superdrive with an update you found on the net or was this an Apple supplied by Software Update update that came down? If you are sure the update killed the drive then lets move on. Are you talking about opening the external Superdrive for the Air and putting it inside your Mac? Something makes that MB Air drive work ONLY with the Air and I am thinking it's the Firmware, and if that is the case it will not work. I would go to OWC and get a replacement Superdrive for your machine. The cost would be the same but it would for sure work and be under warranty.
