I am looking for somebody that sells a drive with the right front or a drive that is compatible with the cover off the LG. The faceplate on the LG is not easy to remove, but it can be done with patience and working slowly. I have been told that the LG faceplate fits onto the Samsung SN-324 24x Combo drive. This is a very nice drive that I've used in a Pismo in both 9 and X. Not set to Master, so it is not recognized by the OS or Toast after hot swap or wake from sleep; no booting holding down C key, but you can boot holding the Option key. Should be able to find it in the $60-70 range. Good luck. Chris -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
