I can confirm that Sony Optiarc BC-5600 Blu-Ray drive works perfectly in this 2010 Macmini!

Edit: Oh whoops you're talking about the optical drive, I personally do not know, however if you speak korean then take a look at these three PDFs. I suppose the guys at iFixit can whip out a ruler and measure it though.

Edit number 2: 12.5mm thick.

If it's not listed in any spec sheets how we can be sure about the height. I canceled my order just because of this. If it fits i will reorder new macmini.

So at the and i really need to know full dimmension of optical drive. I have optiarc 5600s in my old mini and i do not want to waste it:)

Thanks!

No the update says 12.5

Are we sure they didn't have a typo? I find it impossible to believe that the drive is 12.5 mm tall.

No, they have said so, it's definitely 12.5

So all other dimmensions are standart? Or do we need to know all 3 dimmensions to make sure it's replacable with any 12.7 slotin bluray drivers?
