[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1837714, member: 46727"] @hamnickel: Replacing the hard drive with an SSD may not be as easy as you think with that model iMac. Be sure to check with [url=http://www.ifixit.com]iFixit: The Free Repair Manual[/url] for instructions. I suspect that you're going to need an adapter and possibly a bracket plus cable for the replacement SSD. (Unless there is already a position for it internally) Also, you mentioned adding memory. Again, this is a difficult process since the modules are located internally and not easy to get at. Be sure to read all instructions at ifixit first before opening up your iMac. [/QUOTE]
