Replace MacBook Pro optical drive

Meu Problema

The old optical drive was making awful, awful sounds and would work only rarely.

Minha Solução

The repair went very smoothly. Some of the steps were a little trickier than I'd expected. It was more difficult to detach some of the cable than it seemed they should be. But for the most part it was good. No big surprises.

Meu Conselho

I should have read all the comments before I started. There were a few that would have made me more careful on a few steps, and a few that might have made me try a simpler approach on a different step.
