New hard drive will not fit completely
I'm trying to replace the HD in my MacBook Core 2 Duo and it's been going along smoothly but it will not go completely in to the computer. I see that the old drive has just the connections, but the new drive has connections that are surrounded by black plastic.
Did I get the wrong drive? Do I need to do something to make it so it is compatible with the MacBook? I'm not sure how to proceed from here.
The connections look exactly the same except for the black plastic.
Esta é uma boa pergunta?

Please tell us the make and model number of the drive you got.

Seagate. Model ST903203N1 I think it says. The hard drive seems to go in but I cannot get the L bar back on. That could very well just be me more than anything, though.

Even the Seagate web site has nothing on this old drive.

The label was kind of faded. My Best But order says ST903203N1A.
It says right on the box that it works with MacBooks, which makes me wonder if I'm just doing something wrong with the L bracket or something like that.

Here is the new drive. It seems the right size but the black plastic is different than the old drive and I think it's preventing it from making connection. I kind of messed around a little bit to see if there was a way to remove it, but I didn't want to be too zealous.
