Hi,

Anyone knows if optibay is compatible with those new mbp?

I'm planning on getting a new 15 in with a base 128Gb SSD and then add a 750Gb secondary drive with optibay, but I'd like to know for sure that optibay is compatible with the new mbp.

I'm guessing it is since the body didnt really change, but can anyone confirm yet?

Thanks!

If it uses a SATA superdrive then it will work...the drive isnt changing.
 
I'm planning on doing the same thing, and I read in one forum that the internals are basically the same as the last gen. Considering the superdrive is still a superdrive, I doubt the shape has changed. Since the OptiBay is shaped like a superdrive, I'm fairly certain you'll have no issues fitting the drive in.
