[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1839324, member: 46727"] Yeah, I screwed up what I remembered what was in the older iMacs. Turns out you're correct. The 2012 21.5" iMac did come with a slower smaller drive than the 27" models of the same year. The larger 5.25" drives were used on the older PPC iMacs. An older iMac that I owned was a 2013 27" and it had a 3.5" 7200 RPM desktop drive. My current iMac 27" 2017 has an Apple SSD. I have no idea what size it is or who even supplies them for Apple.
