[QUOTE="beaulen, post: 985609, member: 141003"] Good catch! I tried slipping it into a MacBook and it is just a tad tall, 3.2mm too tall I guess. The drive is the same height as the drive from my Titanium PowerBook, so I imagine it would work fine those machines. I understand it would also work on all Mac Minis and G5 iMacs, but not the OPs MacBook. I slipped it into an enclosure and it's recognized as an Apple drive and seems to work well, so there don't seem to be any firmware or power issues, just the height. [/QUOTE]
