If your iMac was configured with a solid state drive or Fusion Drive it includes a blade SSD on the back of the logic board. Use this guide to access and remove the blade SSD.
Before beginning any work on your iMac: Unplug the computer and press and hold the power button for ten seconds to discharge the power supply's capacitors.
Be very careful not to touch the capacitor leads or any exposed solder joints on the back of the power supply. Only handle the board by the edges.

Starting on the left of the display, near the power button, insert the iMac Opening Tool into the gap between the glass panel and the rear case.

Begin to lift the top of the display up from the frame.

Hello, i have a 27" Imac late 2012, with a GeForce 675MX and the 3.2ghz i5 cpu.
My Imac was shipped with a 1tb HDD not the fusion-drive.
Is it possible to retrofit a SSD in this slot: http://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi... (ofcourse it needs to be the orginal apple ssd, like in the macbook pro retina)
Thanks

So i got a Late 2012 2.9ghz Quad Core i5 with only the 1TB harddrive and not the fusion-drive. Does my iMac come with the blade ssd slot? I have a spare 128GB Samsung blade lying around which i removed from my broken macbook air. Would i be able to connect that SSD into the blade ssd slot?
Hello, I used this tutorial to install a SATA SSD blade
http://www.microsatacables.com/sata-blad...
Everything is very fine, single screw SSD Apple was absent.
Restart no surprise the fan packs to bottom: I use this iMac for the free application "Macs Fan Control" which is apparently the only work properly with this model iMac.

Excuse me, this is a Google translation!
Added a blade SSD - found a blade on eBay that had been pulled from a Retina Macbook Pro. I used a little anti-static high temp tape as I did not have the screw for the blade. The Apple part number for the screws is 923-0328 - ebay has them available.
Reinstalled operating system, and was easily able to set up the system as a Fusion Drive by first using Disk Utility.
Thanks for the part number - awesome!
