Q: Early 2009 Mac Mini Superdrive replacement

Hi there.

I have the early 2009 Mac Mini (Mac Mini 3,1) and the Superdrive has failed. It’s out of warranty so I’d like to replace it myself if possible.

All the online guides I can find say that they cover only older Mac Mini models, so I can’t find any details of where to buy the correct drive or how to fit it.

Can anyone help? What’s so different about this revision of Mini? Where (in the UK) can I get the appropriate drive? Or am I going to be stuck with sending it away for an expensive repair?

Thanks.

Mac Mini 3,1 & 11.6" MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.6.4)
