Adding a 2nd Hard Drive to a iMac 2011?
Hi,
I have read that it's possibe to add a second hard drive to the iMac mid 2011. There is supposed to be an extra 2,5" drive bay in the new iMac, i just can't find any directions how to add a new drive in this slot. Does the bay have a connector ready for the added device or do you need some kind of cable for it? And how about the temp sensor issues with the fans going crazy like in the case when try replacing the original main drive.
Esta é uma boa pergunta?

I found this very usefull: http://blog.chargedpc.com/2011/05/2011-i...
I called my local apple service and they charge a 125$ for the parts needed and a 200$ for the whole installation. I think that it's very reasonable and then the warranty is'nt void eighter.

Got the SSD installed by a apple certified technician in a local apple dealer, the cost was under 200$, exactly 139€. And WOW its fast! The SSD installed is a "OCZ Vertex 3 120GB Max IOPS".
