Re:RAM & Hard Drive Upgrade Advice - 2006/10/18 18:27 I also bought a 2ghz 60gb hd white Macbook at the beginning of sept(06). I want to upgrade the hd (already got 2gigs memory upgrade). I came across this hd:

Model #: WD1200BEVS

Western Digital Scorpio 120GB 5400RPM 8MB Buffer Mobile 2.5" Hard Drive - SATA 150MB/s

I just wanted to know if this is, in fact, compatable with my Macbook. I actually wanted a 160gb drive, but I can't find a wd 160, and I've really had good luck through the years with wd drives. Any other suggestions appreciated, though. I did find the site that shows how to do the actual upgrade. It shows the hd having a white tab of some sort on it - do all internal 2.5 sata drives come with that? I would hate to get the thing into the notebook and not be able to get it out again if needed.

Background: I work with a lot of huge music files, and I am going to install xp on the machine - I can't give up Audition 1.5. Why, oh why, didn't Adobe port this to the Mac!?!?!?!? Hence the need for a larger hd.

thanks for any help!
