UJ-867 Superdrive, New
This is a brand new product. In some cases, new products come from dis-assembled new computers or larger assemblies.
New Panasonic (Matsushita) UJ-867 9.5mm super-slimline, slot loading multi DVD burner with ATA (IDE) interface offering 8X recording speeds on DVD±R Discs and the ability to record on DVD+R Double Layer and DVD-RAM formats, including DVD±RW and CD-R/RW. This model directly replaces the discontinued UJ-857.
Warning: The UJ-867 also comes in a cheaper SATA version. Beware if you see this drive elsewhere. Check it is the IDE version first. Neither Panasonic or Hitachi.LG produce a 9.5mm ATA SuperDrive anymore. This drive is slimmer than the normal 12.7mm slimline opticals used in the iBook and powerBook range and is only suitable for the 13" MacBook and 15" MacBook Pro (NOT the Unibody MacBook & MacBook Pro which require a SATA interface drive).
This drive can be used with OSX 10.2 or higher in conjunction with disk burning software such as Toast. Disk buring is directly supported within OSX 10.4.8 (Tiger) or later. There is no manual, software or mounting hardware included.
