[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1789739, member: 46727"] You can use any hard drive or SSD but you do need to take note of thermal problems. Our advice is to go to [url]www.macsales.com[/url] (OWC) and find out if your model iMac needs a thermal adapter so that the fans don't rev up. Apple has used proprietary hard drives in many of their iMacs. Those drives have a special thermal sensor, however, with an adapter any hard drive or SSD can be used. [/QUOTE]
