kookniess Posted October 27, 2007 Author Share Posted October 27, 2007 I'm so happy to see my MBR supporting dual layer so I can burn Leopord tomorrow. Thanks Synaesthesia.

albinoAZN Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 For anybody wondering, regular Macbooks support burning DL as well. I burned and installed Leopard last night on my MB... I dare say it runs more smoothly than tiger did.

Azurael Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 First generation MBPs didn't have DL DVD+/-RW drives. It was something to do with them being thinner than normal notebook optical drives. This one obviously does. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/68033-does-my-macbook-pro-support-dual-layer/#findComment-484013 Share on other sites More sharing options...
