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.

Guys, After I replaced the HDD with a SATA SSD in my about my mac on storage it doesn't say Flash Storage but Solid State Drive. Can I change that writing into Flash Storage. I will have problems reselling it, people may think it was defective and repaired. If anyone knows how to do that please let me know. Thanks
Theres no way to change this, its because flash storage and Solid state drive are similar but not identical tech, just be honest when you resell and say you replaced the drive.
I'm having trouble finding out what kind of SSD the 2013 27" iMac uses, as well as where to buy one. Trying to add one to an iMac that was configured without one when shipped. I read that this model still has the port available, and I'd like to make a fusion drive. Can anyone give me a good source for buying one?
Hi Andrew. Did you do it? Can add the ssd disk?
thanks!
I'm trying to do the same thing Andrew! I have a late 2012 model that has a 1.2TB Fusion Drive,, which is the original 1TB drive with a 200GB Crucial solid state drive, and it's AMAZING! I want to do the same thing to my late 2013 27" iMac, but I heard it doesn't have the same port available as in the late 2012. Does anyone know this for sure?
