laptop dvd burner
    #7077342 - 06/21/07 08:58 PM (16 years, 9 months ago)

so my dvd burner is fucked. it won't read original cds and won't read any dvds, original or not. i wanna change the drive because i've read it's a real shitty drive and i found this one. the price is decent and judging by the reviews it's a pretty solid drive. my question is, how hard is it going to be to put that drive into my laptop? i have plenty of experience with swapping dektop drives and i don't think a laptop is that hard but i just want to make sure.

I don't work on toshiba laptop's so not certain. Usually, there is one screw on the bottom of the laptop somewhere that holds the optical drive in place. You sometimes have to push in on the drive (usually one one side), after removing the screw, to get it to release. Others just pull out. The only ones that are really tough are apple laptops.
