Is it possible to update my iMac from HDD to SSD?
Hi
My hdd is broken so I have to install a new one. Is it possible to install an SSD, and if it is, how is it done and which brand is optimal?
Best regards from Sweden!

Heres the guide to gain access to the HD: iFixIt HD Guide
If you are not using your optical drive, consider replacing it with the SSD instead. Here's the guide to take the optical drive out: iFixIt Optical drive guide.
In either case you'll need a 3.5 to 2.5 bracket (depending on which way you go you'll need different bracket types) and in the case of the optical drive the addition of a optical to HD enclosure Optical to HD SATA enclosure
I would strongly recommend getting a Firewire (if you can still find one, it's getting hard) or USB HD enclosure to house your old HD as a backup drive and using it to prep your SSD. Or use this kit: Universal Drive Adaptor to prep the SSD before you install it.
And lastly, the SSD you get must be able to run at SATA II specs
