Got two SSDs installed my iMac, along with the stock 1TB. This is a 27". I put one dual sided taped to under where the CD drive was, and the other under the 3.5" hard drive. The CD drive is currently not usable (needed the sata connector for the 3.5" drive, which is on SATA2). The two OWCs are on SATA3.
The hardest parts were keeping the LCD panel and glass clean, and readjusting the motherboard. (TAKE YOUR RAM OUT FIRST IF YOU ARE GOING TO ATTEMPT A SSD INSTALL)
Anyways, after 3 hours of work, I feel good about a job well done and wanted to share. No RAID plans as of now... Just Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on one drive, and my Home folder on the other SSD, and the hard drive for storage of big things
. Things have been pretty snappy. Trim support shows up as no though, and I've heard bad things about Trim enabler. Oh well
Any questions/comments welcome
