Is it possible to add an extra hdd to a MacBook
Hey Everyone

Just wondering if there is any room in the case, to be able to put a 2nd hdd inside for backup storage rather than using external hdd all the time,

thanks

Over the years, third-party solutions have existed in some Apple notebooks whereby one of the "expansion bays" could be used for a second hard disk, but with the Macbook designed as it is (and it's dimensions), no way I'm afraid.

If they are willing to give up their optical drive then...

"The new MCE OptiBay Hard Drive was created for users who want as much hard drive space as possible inside their MacBook Pro, MacBook, or PowerBook G4... period. The MCE OptiBay Hard Drive replaces your machine's internal SuperDrive with a high performance hard drive"

The bare bones MCE enclosure is USD 99 plus postage.
Add cost of the drive and any installation charges (or DIY).
