[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1741295, member: 42497"] In the final days of my older 2011 21.5" iMac I purchased a Silicon Power Thunderbird drive, which included the cable, hokkerd it up and purchased a dock for it from 12SouthDock that fitted tonthe leg of the iMac. Go into System Preferences and select the Thunderbolt drive as the bootup drive, and I then used the unternal 1TB drive as a backup. Worked great wuith very high read and write speeds, faster than 6Gbps SSDs as Thunderbolt is 10Gbps. Read was in the higher 300s and Write close to 200 from memory.Now I use it as the backup for my new iMac. [/QUOTE]
