In reply to both David and TimeFreezeG3, you can upgrade both the hard 
drive and the optical drive in a clamshell.

Toshiba makes a 60Gb drive that will fit into iBooks - you need a 2.5" 
drive that is no higher than 9.5mm, so called 'superslim' types.

You can also fit a DVD/CD-RW or DVD drive to your clamshell.

Have a look at this site:
