Description

Just want to print something or quickly check your mails before heading to your next meeting? In those moments it can be really annoying to have your iMac Intel 27” take several minutes to boot. But sadly your HDD drive can’t go any faster, as its read-and-write head needs time to read all the data and send them to the memory. Time to replace your iMac with a newer and faster one? No way, ‘cause we’ll provide you with everything you need to upgrade even older iMacs from 2012 with a modern SSD drive.

Faster, better and more quiet: SSD Upgrade Bundle for your iMac Intel 27”

Not only will your boot times be shortened to a few seconds, but apps will also start much faster. What's more, the compact solid-state drives operate absolutely silently and produce no residual heat—so they're as easy on your ears as they are on your iMac.

If you want to use your new data storage as an external hard drive, the upgrade takes just a few minutes. To install it in the enclosure of your iMac Intel 27" (2012 to 2019), we provide you with all the tools you need as well as detailed step-by-step instructions specific to your model.

Kit Content

Adapter and cable for a 2.5" SSD: All the cables and adapters you need to install a new SSD are included in the upgrade bundle. This option does not include a SSD.

Opening-Tools: To install your new hard drive internally, you need to open up your iMac. To ensure that this procedure is as safe and easy as possible, the kit contains all the special tools you need, which are also used in our DIY instructions.

Driver and specialty bits: Installing the SSD requires a bit of screwing. The necessary Torx security bits are seldom found in an off-the-shelf toolbox, so we included them in the kit.

Take your iMac to the next level

A performance upgrade is a simple and inexpensive way to get more power out of your iMac. The kit is, however, also worthwhile for newer iMac Intel 27" models that are already factory-equipped with a SSD—either for installing a second fast hard drive for even more memory or for repairing a damaged storage drive.

Just because your iMac is a little older doesn’t mean you have to go to the expense of buying a new one. With the Upgrade Bundle, you can turn it into a high-performance machine in no time. And the fact that you're doing the environment a favour by upgrading instead of buying new is another positive side effect.

Your advantages

  • Multiply the speed of your iMac
  • Simple installation with our DIY guide
  • Case and cable for external use are included in the Upgrade Bundle
  • All required tools are optionally included
  • Saves money and the environment
  • Lifetime guarantee (Wanna know more?)

iMac Intel 27" (Late 2012-2019) SSD Upgrade Kit | New / No Hard Drive

This kit and the instructions that iFixit provided basically extended my machine’s life by at least another five years, so thanks for that! iFixit maxes out at a 2tb SSD, so do what I did and get this iFixit kit w/out the drive, then separately get (at least) a 4TB from Crucial. Easy peazy lemon squeezy!

Another great kit and repair guide from iFixit. There’s a lot of steps but this is a fairly straightforward repair so long as you are careful with the display and cables.
