I removed the 120GB hard drive that came standard in my 2.33ghz Macbook Pro and replaced it with the 200GB 7200rpm Hitachi drive. Here’s what it looks like. Thanks to the guide at iFixit.com for the hardware instructions.Duration : 0:1:5

This is my computer I built which is completely custom built piece by piece. Next upgrade will be a Dual Core, which means I will have to buy a motherboard, processor, fans, possibly different ram.

2.8ghz Intel
1280mb ram
ATI Radeon 9600 Pro 256mb AGP16x
(2) DVD burners
(2) Internal Hard Drives
(1) External Hard Drive
Sound Blaster Live
TV Tuner Card
10/100 network card
wifi card
56k Modem
480 watt power supply

Also, from 3dcool, I ordered 2 IDE rounded cables and 1 rounded floppy cable and they sent me 3 IDE instead. I complained and placed another order for a rounded floppy cable and they sent me another rounded IDE cable. they called their “better system bus fan” a “homebrew” so beware of that term. I gave up on using my floppy drive after being sent the wrong cord twice.Duration : 0:5:8
