The Drives are new , thery were removed from new Apple macbook (we fitted bigger ones for a client prior to them taking delivery of the macbooks)
Although out of Apples they can be reformated and fitted into your PC. Any one with an early macbook
take note , these drives have 10.5 preinstalled on them , you could install one of these in your machine
(very easy job) not only will you get a bigger drive you also get a leopard upgrade for FREE.
I was thinking £25 each to Martin and once again I'll cover the shipping.
Martin to cofirm prior to ship first come first serve

as long as your caddy is SATA ( serial ATA) and not ATAPI , ATA , IDE ,UATA or PATA
it will work .
I can take a pic of the drive interface for you if your not to sure .

Of course you can Mate. I'll also have a look around the workshop here there might be a
drive lying around to fit your current case. to replace your broken one.
