[QUOTE="jschohan, post: 1774233, member: 396312"] I didn't want the hassle of opening up the iMac, I realise not having usb 3 ports would hurt performance but the ssd drive speed is just a bit higher than usb 2 maximum speed so I wasn't too fussed about lack of usb 3. I wonder if a fresh install of OS X on the drive using recovery and moving over documents and photos using finder after the install would be quicker than cloning the drives? It looks like it will take about two/three days at this rate. [/QUOTE]
