[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1257887, member: 46727"] As far as I know, the special firmware drives can only be purchased from Apple along with them doing the installation. But who can say that in the future these drives won't be available from third party suppliers? All the new mid 2011 iMacs are still under warranty so the cost would be on Apple if the drive should fail. I just purchased a new iMac for our business and will eventually get Apple care (after our 90 days free telephone support expires). That will protect us for three years in the event of a hard drive failure. [/QUOTE]
