25 June 2008 @ 7:58Hack the MacBook Air SuperDrive to be universal

Apple MacBook Air SuperDrive MB397G/Atnkgrl, has hacked a MacBook Air SuperDrive to work with other computers. The trick was to replace the CD-to-USB board (USB-PCB-E1), since that is what Apple is using to limit the SuperDrive to the MacBook Air. This hack is not for the faint of heart, but the result is a great looking portable SuperDrive.

Read how tnkgrl made it work.
