ZXUY Hard Drive SATA 2nd HDD Caddy Tray for Unibody 9.5mm Laptop CD/DVD-ROM Drive Slot (Replacement Only for SSD and HDD)

So i installed an ssd in the main slot and wanted to remove the useless cd-rom drive and put an extra hd in there. It worked well, let me tell you the installation is pretty difficult. There are so many little screws you have to take apart that the process got a little stressful lol. If however, you keep track of where you got the screws and keep them neatly in place it wouldn't be to hard. Just some notes, most reviews are for older models and i couldn't find anything for my newer macbook. I found something on ifixit finally and will post it below. Only needed the review for the part on removing the speaker assembly as i couldn't tell which screws to remove. With a little patience however, the installation is pretty painless and takes maybe 20 minutes to do. My battery life is about the same or rather i haven't noticed a decrease. The ssd saves some power, and the extra HD just sites idle mostly so it balances out. Tips: You'll need a small screw screw driver (the one the looks like a star (forgot what its called sorry)) to remove the screws off of the HD if you're planning on putting the one that comes with the mac in this caddy. This caddy comes with a screw driver to remove all the screws on your macbook and it works perfectly, fits the screws well and is a small screw driver.

If you are looking to replace your optical drive on your 2011 late and early Macbook Pro, this device is for you. hahaha, really, I sound like I should be their salesman but I am very happy with this product. In fact I bought the same one (although I think from a different buyer) for my early macbook pro and because it worked so well I bought this one for my Late 2011 macbook pro. The only difference is that I paid 9 bucks for the express mail on this one because a friend was leaving to Indonesia in a few days and I got her to help me out and bring this for me. The other disk caddy I got took about 2 weeks to get to my other friend's place. But the caddy works well, it fits nicely with the space left by the optical drive, and I only used one of the screws they provided because the macbook pro screws all worked well. I know other places are selling these caddy's for about 60 bucks but I can honestly tell you, NO NEED. I think the difference is that the others give you a plastic sponger .... i used a plastic spoon and was find (to lift up some tabs on your mac) .... hope this helps NEW INFORMATION: Okay, so I went to leave a product review on the first disk caddy I bought and I got a warning label from Amazon that stated "You can not comment on the same product (or set) twice." So I do have something to add .... The first disk caddy i bought was from Sold by: AMZNeTek ( seller profile ) (and because I didn't pay for express it took about 2 weeks to get to my house. The second disk caddy I bouth was Sold by: National tech solutions LLC ( seller profile ) and it took 2 days to get to my house because i paid 9 bucks for express. So, just in case you are confused or worried about buying the right disk caddy, and wondering why these are so darn cheap compared to the 60 dollar kind, I can tell you these are well worth their money. I did my research and saw the caddy's that have extra pieces hanging off of them and these ARE NOT those kind. These work really well.

I am soooo glad I purchased this caddy over the more expensive MCE Optibay or OWC Data Doubler. I have an Early 2011 13" MacBook Pro and used this caddy to utilize an M225 128GB Crucial SSD in the SuperDrive area (so the SSD is in the caddy). I left my stock HD right where it was as I've read in countless places that the sudden motion sensor for the HD only works there. Plus, that is where it was designed to go. This caddy fits like a glove with no effort or adjusting needed on my part to the caddy. The 4 screws come preinstalled in the caddy so don't freak out if you don't see a little bag with them in it. I was a bit worried at first as the packaging had Chinese all over it so I thought I got a Chinese ripp off imitation. But it works like a champ! Installation was simple and easy. I think anyone could do it, took me 15 minutes roughly. Just watch any youtube video or better yet, watch the installation video on the OWC website for their Data Doubler (that's what I did). They let you choose your model of MBP and the video is in HD. FYI, this caddy comes with no tools or instructions. (I didn't mind) Why spend $50-$60 on the overpriced MCE or OWC stuff when you can do the same for around $10? Great product!

Works great! Used in my Early 2011 - 15" MacBook Pro. I did have to trim a little piece off of one of the screw tabs (the one closest to the HDD's original location) to get it to fit properly. I was still able to fasten it with all screws.

Worked with an old SSD. Build quality is poor and it is not machined to a high quality finish, I would have expected better even at this price.

Works. Easy to install.

The screw threads are not precise enough - so there is a certain amount of rattling. Definitely not a good thing since it is supposed to hold the only moving part in the laptop. Not recommended.

not works and no money back
