[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1629653, member: 46727"] It's possible but very difficult because the temperature sensor device and hard drive that's present in your 2012 iMac is proprietary. However, OWC (Mac Sales) has come up with a device that overcomes the temperature sensor problem. You need to contact them. Also, removing the front panel on a 2012 and 2013 iMac is a difficult procedure. The panel is not held in place by magnets as the older models were. It's very easy to cause damage trying to remove that panel. My advice is to have the work done professionally. [/QUOTE]
