Which replacement Optical drive do I need for my system?

History

I have the 2GHz intel core 2 duo version. and the optical drive is on it's way out. Looking @ the drives available against what I have I think I need the UJ-85J. But in the product details it says that it is compatible with OS versions 10.2 through 10.5. I am going to be installing 10.6.3 when I get this fixed.

So the question is... Will this be the right one and is this drive compatible with snow leopard?

Here is a link to the suggested superdrive for your unit. I agree it says its compatible with 10.2 to 10.5 but it is for a Intel computer so it should work with 10.6 as well. Ask the sales person when you buy for confirmation. Good luck. Ralph

Hello Joseph, That was the first one I came to. Looking at your specs that should work also. Ralph
