hi

can a cd-drive from a tray loading bondi imac be put into the 333mhz imac? (tray load)

I Know you can't put a drive from a 333mhz in a bondi - but is it ok to do it the other way around?

any ideas

yeah, you would just have one ugly whole in the middle, neither drive deem it necessary to be connected to a power source .

sorry, i meant hole.
But yeah a hole. you want to put a tray loader on a slot loader, so there will no nice little slot in front that pops out with drive, you will just see the actual drive barebones style.
