Every thing is doable, though some people decide to take the risk and some won't.
It seems to be a simple process in the only annoying part is the tape, but not the end of the world.
hopefully in the next couple days we should have some one show a tear down.
if not monday we will be doing two 27" ssd upgrades we will take heaps of photos

Indeed! OWC sells a kit with the tape now, so that's the only part that I need to see addressed. The replacement of the internal drive would be a cinch with the correct tape in place. Apparently the old tape doesn't even leave residue, so really the only think I need to know about is that darn tape!
Hey WilliamG, just checked on the OWC site but couldn't find the kit, could you post the link to it please.
Cheers

Just mentions the 21.5", but no doubt the 27" upgrade kit will appear in the coming day when they gets their hands on it. I just want the tape.
