iMac Intel 27" Retina 5K Display Hard Drive Replacement
Giriş
1. adıma gitFollow this guide to replace the hard drive for your iMac. Replacing the hard drive requires separating the display and moving the left speaker.
This guide also includes steps to upgrade your iMac's hard drive with an SSD. It describes how to install the SSD's temperature sensor so that the Mac's fans will operate at the correct speed.
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.

Bu adımda kullanılan alet:iMac Intel 27" Cardboard Service Wedge$4.99
-
With the hinge free to move, the iMac will be unbalanced and hard to work on. Repairs can be completed with the iMac laying down, but are faster and easier with an iMac service wedge.
-
If you are using the iFixit cardboard service wedge, follow these assembly directions to put it together.

-
Bu adımda kullanılan alet:Plastic Cards$2.99
-
Set the iMac face-up on a table.
-
Starting from the top right corner of the iMac, insert a plastic card between the display and frame.
-
-
-
With the cards inserted as shown near the corners, gently twist the cards to increase the gap between display and case.
-
If there are any sections that seem to stick and won't separate, stop twisting and use one of the cards to cut the adhesive in the problem area.
-
Begin to lift the top of the display up from the frame.
-
-
-
If there is a wire or cable underneath adhesive tape, always pull the tape off first.
-
If the cable is glued to the chassis, use a heated iOpener or a hair dryer to soften the adhesive first. You can then slide an opening pick underneath the cable to loosen it. Never pull directly on the delicate connectors.
-
Slide an opening pick underneath the foam cushion pieces to separate them from the display, and gently pull them off. You may need some double sided tape to re-attach them to the new display.
-
-
-
Use a T10 driver to remove the two 10 mm screws securing the left speaker.
-
-
-
Remove the four 8.1 mm T8 screw posts from the hard drive, and transfer them to the replacement drive enclosure.
-
-
-
Line up the SSD connectors with the metal enclosure's sockets.
-
Press the drive against the enclosure sockets until the SSD is firmly seated.
-
-
-
Peel the white liner off the back of the small temperature sensor board in order to expose the adhesive.
-
Adhere the temperature sensor board to an exposed, metal surface of the SSD, close to the SATA connector.
-
Fold the excess temperature sensor wires so that they are out of the way while you install the enclosure.

I did successed this. But after just turn on, main fan spins faster than ordinary status. About 1600 rpm. Ordinary rpm is just 1200.
How can I fix it? Not by software solution(i.e., fan control app), help me by hardware solutions, plz.

Dear Changwon, i also own a Retina imac (i7 Radeon 295). Harddisk has been changed by the distributor – they sell customized "Edition iMacs". Now i have the same problem as you subscribed - from day one. Fan speeds up to 1700 / 1750 rpm after a few seconds after power on. Next week my Apple certified distributor will check my iMac and hopefully fix that "noisy" problem. I will inform you, when we will be successful ... Have a great time so long. Greetings, Markus (mr@i-map.de)

Did you use a original HDD with apple Firmware or a normal HDD? If u use a nomal HDD with non apple Firmware, you have the Fan Problem.
