[QUOTE="Che_Guitarra, post: 1690476, member: 175678"] It appears the former owner did a reinstall, but for ultimate confidence (and to avoid potential troubleshooting issues in the future) I think it would be common-sensical to format the HDs and reinstall OSX under my own supervision. I will likely need to do it again in a day or two as I have a tech installing the SSDs as I write this. Samsung 850 Evos... 7mm thick. The tech (20-year Apple specialist) didn't seem to think this was a problem though... we'll soon see. Heck, it might even aid air flow :) And yes, I do have an Apple ID. [/QUOTE]
