Question about Macbook hard drive??

[brando06]

I have a first generation 13.3" black macbook and was wondering if this....

Would work in my macbook. I am looking to get a newer better hard drive and have heard Western Digital are excellent, so if this one won't work could someone suggest a better choice??

No it won't because it's a 3.5" drive. You need a 2.5" SATA drive like:

or

There are 500 gig drives available, just not from NCIX that I could see. Both Seagate and WD make ones that will fit.

Yes it will work but for an extra few bucks, I suggest This One. The 7200rpm is quite a bit snappier with startup and program launching. I'm very happy with this model and it works perfectly.

The current largest drives are 500GB for your MacBook.
