[QUOTE="t.allyn, post: 1696848, member: 368050"] Point well taken. However yes I did get a great deal plus the place I purchased it from took several old dead pcs and a couple other things in trade which knocked the price down considerably. Plus, they asked me for consultation regarding their Ebay sales for which I was rewarded handsomely. So ya I got a very good deal. The advice to wait on a ram upgrade is good! I decided this morning to contact Apple and to my surprise I was helped with greatly with a couple issues I had. In the process I learned something about operating this thing that shortened my learning curve a bit. Additionally I am now running OS x El Capitan. I hope you do not mind my asking, would the following Samsung SSD work in this unit: Capacity: 500GB Form Factor: 2.5 inch Interface: SATA 6Gb/s (Compatible with SATA 3Gb/s & SATA 1.5Gb/s) NAND Flash: 32 Layer 3D V-NAND Thickness: 7.0 mm Optimized performance for everyday computing needs Sequential read speed 540 MB/s; Sequential write speed 520 MB/s; Random read speed 100K; Random write speed 90K Or this one. Form Factor: 2.5" Storage Capacity: 500GB Brand: Crucial Interface: SATA III Model: CT500MX200SSD1 [/QUOTE]
