iMac 2011 hard drive replacement kit

kgian · Nov 21, 2012, 08:51 AM

While browsing the owc site, I came across the instructional videos. I found out they have a video on how to upgrade the original hard drive. On that video they show a replacement SATA power cable which fixes the sensor problem, so the fans don't spin up.

I browsed the site but could not find where they sell this cable.

Check it out!

I think they may have changed their mind & now don't want to sell self-upgrade for iMac. They offer a program instead by which you ship the machine to them & they do the work.
