Yes, i just did this with the Optibay HD. My Macbook is white 13" 1st Generation and this works great. I cloned my original disk the new 500GB HD and will replace my original 80GB HD with another 500GB for a total of 1 TB in my MacBook. The only problem I've come across while booted from the new HD is Sleep and Hibernate problems. When i would put the machine to sleep I could hear the HD immediately shut down, but the Power indicator wasn't pulsing like it should. The fan will soon kick on like the CPU is running hot and the machine won't wake up. The problem seems to have something to do with the Safe Sleep feature. I followed the troubleshooting instructions on Cnets MacFixIt site and disabled the Safe Sleep. There is also a Shareware app that can toggle safe sleep mode on and off called "Lights Out." Running lights out to turn off safe sleep is easier to me than punching in the correct code and deleting the correct files. Issue is solved so far and I just need to figure out what i will do with all this space.
