Hi, and I am inquiring on how the SuperDrive in the MacBook and professional MacBook Pro loads and reads disks.
I have heard that in some cases when older MacBooks are moved around--they may scratch disks. This leads me to question how the SuperDrive loads disks. On PCs, they snap into a piece of plastic, and are held there no matter how the computer is moved. The disks in a SuperDrive are fed manually and are not user-placed.
My question is: when the SuperDrive accepts disks, does it pull the disk up into a piece of plastic where it is anchored for reading and writing? Or does it spin in place--subject to wobbling unlike a normal tray-fed drive?
Thanks, JRW300
