Macbook Pro CD/DVD disc drive replacement

[Red-Biff]

Hello All,

As many of you may have experienced, my MBP disc drive has died. (Model of my laptop is MacBook Pro 2.2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (15.4-inch)) It wont read anything, burn anything, just spins and spits discs back out. Was just wondering if anyone had any experience of putting a new drive in? I've found a load of info on upgrading hard drives but i can't find much on replacing the disk drives.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

You're in for a treat: http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Repair/...226-and-A1260-Optical-Drive-Replacement/669/1

They offer ODDs as well, but maybe you can find cheaper ones via eBay.
Btw, MacSales (OWC) offers them as well, but they are a bit more expensive.
