Hi everyone,

I have a mb late 2008 aluminium 2.4ghz that I just upgraded to 4gb ram, 256gb ssd hard drive. everything works great! only issue I have is I need more space to store music, pics etc I recently discovered that there was a possibility to replace the optical drive by a hdd... so there it is!
I am going to London next week, and I was wondering if anyone knew a place I could get an optibay? any recommendations? also will it be 100% compatible with my macbook aluminium 2008? (not macbook pro)

anyone tried in this mb 2008 before? what do you think? would it be a good move? could it cause any issues (apart from warranty)? overheating etc?

thanks a lot!

Dude. It was not that hard to Google Optibay and get the link. Took me less than 3 seconds to find. By the way, your computer is no longer under any warranty so you can do whatever you want with it.
