I'm confused.  Is it possible to install a UIJDA330 CDRW drive into a 
Wallstreet bay or not?  There seems to be conflicting advice here.

There are no reports at xlr8yourmac about Wallstreet mods, only 
people installing the (much more expensive) MCE drives, which are 
built for Wallstreets, or people installing Dell drives into Pismos. 
Has anyone here actually put one in a Wallstreet?  Any first hand 
info would be much appreciated!
