Many thanks for this superb resource. My 4 year old had actually shoved a couple of coins into the drive. I would never have had the guts to replace it myself without your help - by far the best on the web!
For anyone who has stripped a screw in step 8 this note might make your day. I stripped the longer screw using a #00 bit. I then took a 1.5mm flat head bit from the iFixit screwdriver kit and rocked it along the line of the flat head into the stripped screw head, with some pressure a few times and that created enough of a depression to easily remove the screw. There was even enough purchase to reinstall it securely so no need to hunt down a replacement screw.
I'd need to know where I could find the connector between the optical drive and the logicboard. I put my hdd in a caddie to put it instead of the optical drive but my macbook keep disconnecting it. Already changed the caddie so I guess that the connector is faulty.
Anyone ? :)
Found it ! But iFixit you should put a link to the other tutorial when you mention the connector in step 11 :D
Right as rain! The comments were especially helpful, although so many stories about stripping screws had me concerned..but I used pressure, care, and voila… success without heartache! I made a template to keep track of the screws and it was very helpful. I did note my mounting bracket was held on by Phillips #00…reattaching was the hardest part, but that could have to do with the fact that I am a disabled Vietnam Vet (yeah, do the math). Thank you so much.
