    • Solo tienes que seguir estos 8 pasos si lo que quieres es sustituir tu disco duro con un kit SSD

    • Suelta la placa frontal de la carcasa empujando sobre la pestaña con tu dedo. Mientras empujas la pestaña hacia adentro, extrae la placa.

    • Separa la placa frontal.

    Ich denke die Frontplatte hätte anschliessend auch wieder eingesetzt gehört - bin die Anleitung Schritt für Schritt durch gegangen, und mir ist leider gar nicht aufgefallen, dass dieser Schritt fehlt. Nun ist der iMac bereits wieder verklebt und beim Aufräumen ist mir die übrig gebliebene Frontplatte untergekommen.

    Aber halb so schlimm, die SSD ist angeschraubt, kann sich also eh nicht bewegen.

    My enclosure doesn’t look like this. All I received was a black back plate. Where is the rest of it? Oh boy

    • Alinea el conector SATA pequeño para que el lado más corto del conector SSD se ajuste también con el lado corto del conector de la carcasa.

    • Inserta el disco a través de la ranura frontal de la carcasa hasta que el conector SATA esté en su lugar.

    • Solo hay una disposición espacial con la que el SSD se conectará con la carcasa. Si no se alinean bien, gira el SSD y prueba de nuevo.

    • Alternativamente, podrás colocar los dos tornillos Philips #1 incluidos con el kit de la carcasa para asegurar la sujeción del SSD.

    • Sustituye la placa frontal.

    • Conecta el cable SATA con sensor incluido en el puerto de la carcasa.

    • Alinea el lado fino del conector con el lado fino de la carcasa. El cable está diseñado para conectarse al tener una cierta orientación. Si no consigues conectarlo, rótalo 180º y prueba de nuevo.

    • Pela la cobertura adhesiva de la pequeña placa del sensor de temperatura.

    • Pega la placa del sensor de temperatura a una zona metálica expuesta del SSD (lo más cerca posible del conector SATA).

    • Dobla el exceso de cable del sensor de temperatura para que no estorbe mientras terminas de instalar la carcasa.

    Does the small temperature sensor board have to be purchased separately for a 2015 iMac or is there one already attached to the HDD?

    Richard Lee -

    Hi Richard, our upgrade kit does come with a temperature sensor, but a hard drive bought by itself will not come with one.

    Adam O'Camb -

    The enclosure that came with my kit is all plastic, does the sensor have to be connected to metal? If yes, where would it go given the all-plastic enclosure?

    Lynne Mitchell -

    Hi Lynne,

    It does not have to be connected to metal. However, the sensor should be stuck on the drive and not on the enclosure so that it can sense the drive’s temperature.

    My iMac (27-inch, Late 2013) (Model Identifier: iMac14,2) (EMC: 2639), had a Seagate Barracuda 1.0TB HDD installed. There was no temperature sensor on the HDD. I have the Fan Controller that is pictured in this manual on Steps 39, 40 and 41. The photos do not show a small two-conductor cable connected from the Fan Controller circuit board to the logic board. There is usually a cable that connects the small circuit board, where the drive’s temperature is measured, to a connector on the logic board, but not in this iMac. For now, I have installed the Samsung 860 EVO 500GB SSD without a fan controller and it has been running for over two hours without a hint of the fan ramping up. Should I still install the Fan Controller and not worry about connecting the controller sensor to the logic board? Thank you for creating an excellent manual!

    David Higgins -

    Hello, what if I don’t buy the temperature sensor? Could I break my computer or the SSD? Thank you in advance for your answer.

    kurdonet -

    You can use Mac Fan Control as a software solution. You won’t break your computer as it will slow down and throttle itself to protect it. More than anything, your SSD will run warmer than usual, which could shorten its lifespan.

    I just did this procedure with an A1419 (EMC # 2806) and didn’t buy the temperature sensor. I didn’t experience any loud fans afterwards. The machine was originally ordered with 3TB Fusion Drive. After installing the new 2TB SSD (WD Blue WDS200T2B0A) the Disk Utility showed an original 128GB PCI drive in addition to the new SSD. I ignored this PCI SSD and reinstalled OS X on the SATA SSD. All is good here! Oh, also I didn’t use any fancy 3.5” to 2.5” drive adapter, but a simple 3-dollar eBay adapter (can be found with this title, “2.5" to 3.5" Bay SSD Metal Hard Drive HDD Mounting Bracket Adapter”). I keep these laying around just in case. I did have to re-thread the screw holes to re-use the iMac’s HDD screw-posts (used tap & drill set, size 6-32 NC).

    Andy Blakely -

    I just upgraded my late 2015 iMac with a 1TB Samsung 860 EVO and did not use a sensor. No fan or heat issues over the last week of use. Please note this Samsung drive is not the primary workhorse on the machine as I also upgraded my PCI ssd and use that as the primary drive. I have read on other sites that this model iMac does not need the sensor but I am not 100% on that.

    • Inserta las clavijas del disco duro antiguo en los laterales de la carcasa.

    • Los agujeros de la carcasa podrían no estar roscados, y colocar las clavijas podría necesitar algo más de esfuerzo de lo normal. Tómate tu tiempo y hazlo lentamente, asegurándote de que se inserten bien.

    This was an understatement for my drive adapter. The adapter had threads that I believe were M3 threaded whereas the mounting pins are what I believer are 6-32 screws. The mounting pins are not threaded well for self-tapping, so I recommend finding an old screw that used to be used for mounting optical drives into PC cases and using those to thread the holes. You can make sure you have the correct size by screwing the sacrificial screws into the old hard drive where they should fit easily before using them to cut new threads into your 2.5” drive adapter. After that, the mounting pins went into the adapter with very little effort.

    • Coloca cualquier soporte que hayas separado del disco duro antiguo en la carcasa.

    • Coloca el cable combo SATA del iMac sobre el cable combo SATA aislante.

    • Distribuye el cableado SATA de forma que no interfiera con otros componentes.

    • Intenta que los cables no se doblen demasiado, y procura no colocarlos en espacios demasiado comprimidos.

    How much time after gluing the screen can we use it?

    Maurya Gajjar -

    A few hours should be fine. I suggest checking the screen after a week and after a month to make sure the adhesive is still fully bonded.

    Arthur Shi -

    Ensure the glass lines up with the edge of the iMac

    After replacing the adhesive strips with new ones and the screen connectors have been reconnected, place the lower edge of the screen on the bottom shelf” to take the weight, but don’t press it back in the shelf too much.

    At this point if you’re careful you still have the ability to ensure the edges of the glass line up with the aluminium edges. As soon as the adhesive strips make contact with the glass you will quickly lose the ability to adjust this to line up.

    What position should the iMac be in before doing this final comment related to setting the display on the “shelf”?

I love the guide~ it is super easy to follow. My computer is not recognizing the disk and I can’t figure out why. I feel like I missed something in reassembly. Any suggestions? Common errors?

Julie Cain -

Hi Julie!

Was the new drive formatted before you installed it? You can try to boot the iMac in recovery mode and reinstall the OS from there. If that doesn’t work, please post your question on our Answers forum and someone may be able to help you out!
