If you're the owner of a 21.5" iMac, you understand that bigger is not always better. Your iMac can do nearly everything its 27" big-brother can, and you've got at least five extra green ones still in your wallet. If you want your iMac to really fly, the biggest bang for your buck is to boot using a blazing-fast SSD.

We've custom designed a kit with all the parts and tools you
need to install a second hard drive inside your Mid 2011 21.5"
iMac. It will work with all processor speeds, regardless of whether
Apple offers the additional SSD option for your machine. And unlike
other kits, our product does not require permanently removing your
optical drive. You'll have two drives as
well as a functioning optical drive. All you need is an extra 2.5"
SATA drive (not included). We recommend installing an "https://www.macfixit.com.au/shop/index.php?_a=viewCat&catId=227">SSD and
using it as your boot drive, but you could instead install
a "https://www.macfixit.com.au/shop/index.php?_a=viewCat&catId=116">1
TB hard drive
for more storage space.

The kit includes:

  • Custom SATA power & data cable
  • Custom-cut 3M mounting tape
  • Two Heavy-duty Suction Cups
  • 26 Piece Bit Driver Kit
  • Spudger

The iFixit detailed "https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Installing-iMac-Intel-21-5-Inch-EMC-2428-Dual-Hard-Drive-Kit/6434/1">guide walks
you through the entire installation process.

Note: this kit will only work in Mid 2011 21.5" iMacs. We also
offer an equivalent "https://www.macfixit.com.au/shop/index.php?_a=viewProd&productId=2527">dual
hard drive kit for the Mid 2011 27" iMac.
