If you have a small SSD storage size, you can upgrade this as well, but it’s not necessary if you have enough space already. You should certainly upgrade your regular SATA drive to an SSD drive as it’s ridiculously faster from startup, shutdown, accessing files, Internet, and everything in between.
Until Apple start soldering the solid state drives to the iMac logic board, and I’m sure it’s only a matter of time, your SATA or solid state hard drive (SSD) can be upgraded. As for the question here, is your iMac hard drive upgradeable? And should you do it? There’s no reason these parts cannot and should not be upgraded. DE-FUSE the internal fusion drive using Terminal. BACK UP whatever you wish to save on the internal fusion drive if you can (it -might- be 'mountable' IF you boot from an external drive) 3. This includes hard drive upgrades, RAM upgrades, and other parts. (if you dont have an external drive that is bootable, youll need to create one) 2. At third-party Apple repair shops in NYC, for instance…well, the good ones that is, they’ll upgrade anything and everything. They don’t upgrade anything and are product-centric first before service which kills me. This means they can actually help the customer!Īlright, so I have a little angst towards Apple. Non-Apple shops have the liberty to do as they please. So, they will not be opening up your iMac to help you out. This process can take 30 seconds or more, and the display of your iMac remains dark until its finished. Your iMac performs a memory initialization procedure when you first turn it on after upgrading memory or rearranging DIMMs. Apple wants you to buy new stuff all the time and preferably every year. Reconnect the power cord and all other cables to the computer, then start up the computer. Why can’t authorized Apple repair shops do this? Well, see the same reasoning above.
Most notably, non-authorized Apple repair providers do this.
