| re ibook g4's combo drive.. |
Posted by: chelseayr on 2023-04-15 11:59:18 its a matshita cw-8124 as per the system profiler..
(and interesting enough while writing this I found out that the mini g4 used the same drive at at least one point?)
just curious if it could had been simply switched with another slot-loaded slim drive or is there any particular software-related limit to that?
as it is now its quite noisy and probably is close to premature failure in a manner speaking, so I was just curious what to make a possible buyer be able to expect when I resell this ibook as it currently was you know? |
