Would this DVD drive work with my early 2011 MacBook Pro?

Installed on my 15-inch early 2011 Macbook Pro few months ago. Everything fit just fine and no compatibility issues. Routinely read and burn DVDs without issue. Good replacement.

Open the back case. Look at the current drive label. Do a search of Amazon, using that number. If this product pops up, then yes. However, as in my review, the DVD drive case may not be an exact match; thus necessitating a delicate transplant of DVD covers, before insertion into the Macbook Pro.

I can't say for sure - I've put it in my late 2011 MacBook Pro 13". As far as I know (99% sure) the 2012 models have the exact same specs when it comes to the superdrive space. It will work with ANY SATA drive, whether it's HD, Hybrid or SSD. For $8 I'd take the risk!

Yes, this DVD unit will work with the Macbook provided that you use either a USB 2.0 or a USB 3.0 port depending on what USB ports are provided on the Macbook. It should not be a problem, enjoy your computing days!

I can't say for sure, but it's a SATA and that model macbook is too, so it certainly should work. I've replaced SATA drives with WD and Seagate drives in Macs in the past and had success with them.

Yes. I have it installed in my 2011 17" MacBook Pro. So long as your laptop used a SATA connection for the hard drive, it will work.

Hi Ryan, Based on general specifications, this memory should work in the Early 2011 Macbook Pro model laptops. However Apple computers can be more specific, for that reason we have branded memory which is tested and guaranteed to work in specific systems. The 4GB Apple branded memory guaranteed to work in the Early 2011 Macbook Pro is part number KTA-MB1333S/4G, found here: http://www.amazon.com/Kingston-Technology-1333MHz-KTA-MB1333S-4G/dp/B00B2UWR44/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1432913022&sr=1-1&keywords=KTA-MB1333S%2F4G Thank you for choosing Kingston as your upgrade partner! -Jewel, Kingston US Technical Support

Yes! I have a MacBook Pro from 2011 or 2012 and it works. There should be a small opening for a lock next to the CD drive.

Yes. It should work. But please check out this video first. http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/MacBook+Pro+13-Inch+Unibody+Early+2011+Hard+Drive+Replacement/5119 There may be a cut-off between early 2011 & eary 2012. There are also some kits that allow you to upgrade to Hybrid or SSD. Hope this helps.

Should be. If you have a 2.5" drive ( which my macbook did ) then you should be fine. Just make sure you have all the install disks for osx.

Hey Nelson, i'm not sure, i installed this drive into my late 2007 Intel Macbook Pro 15" 2.4/2.2GHz and it worked like a charm. :) i would research your computer model on google and what cd drives it is compatible with. sorry i wasnt more help!

While I've never installed one in an older MacBook, I see no reason it shouldn't work. No promises though. And that said, it won't fully take advantage of the speed of the SSD because it will be limited by the 1500mbps SATA bus in the MacBook (this SSD can perform sequential reads of 4000mbps).

I have a desktop iMac without a DVD drive and it works just fine, so I don't know. I do remember reading somewhere that Apple's new external dvd will only work on computers without a DVD drive.

Yes I believe so should all be in the specs. I have had no trouble with the drive, Seems very reliable using it with my macbook retina.

Yes, it will work. I've used it on my 2011 Macbook Pro as well as Windows computers. Works great on both.

I have it and it works fine with late 2011 MacBook Pro. There is no software to install, it is built in the Mac )S 10.6 and later, hot swaps fine,come USB power card to power external bus hard drives. This was only of four different cards I tried, this the only chip set that is support by Mac OS Fresco Logic Chipset FL1100, all the others you had install drivers and had restart computer every time to remount the cards and they constantly dropped the connection. The only drawback is the long shipping time two to four weeks.
