Im about to buy a MacBook, but i have a question.
I kno its really easy to change the hard drive in a macbook (woohoo) and i was wondering if you can buy ANY harddrive to put into the MacBook, i mean as long as it is a ATA hard drive... Please email me if you kno the answer, thanks.. Juhani

Well, first of all, it has to be a SATA drive, and then there are some drives that are a mm or two too thick. If you do a search, the size specs have been discussed in this forum. Sorry, but I can't tell you off the top of my head what the size restriction is.

I’m afraid not. It must be a 2.5" Serial ATA-150 hard drive that isn’t taller than 9.5 mm I believe. Example.
