I just got a MacBook yesterday and would like to order a bigger hard drive today. Would some of you throw some suggestions my way please? Thanks!
 
My hard drive arrived today and darn if I didn't order the WRONG one. 😡 I just ordered the correct one and hope that they will allow me to return this one. What a mistake! 😱
 
if you're new to mac and don't know what exactly you're looking for i recommend using macsales.com, they will tell you what mac it works in
 
Thanks! The right drive should be in my hands tomorrow. Well I guess I have a desktop drive up for grabs. :apple:

Y'all can get an empty one of those external drive cases easily and cheaply enough (firewire preferred for Apple imho, get one that can do both FW and USB if you want to use it with Windows machines too) and use it as an external store. A very good idea to get something like that set up and use with time machine to back up your important data.
 
Where can I get the external case from. That is a great idea! Thanks! 😉
