Chosen Solution
I’m looking to replace my default HD with a 1TB SSD and I was just wondering exactly which one would be the absolute best to get, and also what other things do I need to purchase to make this work (do I need a new fan/new bracket/etc)? This is my first time ever messing with my iMac and I feel fairly comfortable installing everything myself, but I’m just a little clueless when it comes down to the specifics on how to give this thing a much needed boost and what I need to purchase, and I could use some expert advice. Thanks!
To keep the fans from running wild you’ll need this inline temperature sensor: https://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/DIDI… Here’s the whole kit for adding it to the SSD bay: https://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20… If you are replacing the drive you’ll also need a 2.5 to 3.5" adapter like this: https://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/SSD2…
