2008 Macbook optical bay caddy question.

MikeSantor · Dec 10, 2012, 08:34 AM

I have a quick question on a optical bay caddy for a Feb 2008 Blackbook. I have done a bunch of research and seem to be getting very conflicting information on what caddies fit if any. Will the OWC caddy fit in the optical bay on this model?

For reference, I looking to put a 750gb drive in the optical bay and 128gb Samsung SSD in the hdd bay.

Thanks in advance for helping me clear this up!

Thanks Chris.

The reason That I asked about the OWC is I have the blackbook on the way in the mail and I have someone that used to have dual hard drives that has the OWC caddy laying around and they offered it to me for free. I just wanted to be preemptive and have all my ducks in a row.
