[QUOTE="kaidomac, post: 212451, member: 15110"] Yes, I believe that's correct. I don't know the exact size of the new, smaller drive, but it is smaller. The new MacBooks/MacBooks Pros are using a "MAT****ADVD-R UJ-857" optical drive, which is a Mat****a DVD-R UJ-857 burner. I'm guessing it's a 9.5mm drive, versus the standard 12.7mm drives. Check out this page for a comparison: [url]http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/85.1.9.html[/url] [B]Edit:[/B] Hah, it took out part of the manufacturer's name. Take out the dash: Mats-hita. [/QUOTE]
