yo I have bought the Crucial M4 SSD 512GB [still in its box] to replace my Apple 256GB in my iMac. I've already done research into this and the temperature issues are isolated to the HDD only.
However, apparently the firmware needs to be updated to rev. 0009 from the Crucial website? Word on the internet is that there are issues with bootcamp booting up on this SSD+Firmware? Can anyone clarify if this is true?
Also, when Apple releases future firmware updates, it will undoubtedly override the Crucial rev.0009? Therefore, will Mac OS X fail to boot or will it run alright?
Any other issues that could potentially arise down the line with this Crucial SSD?
Cheers and mucho appreciata!!

P.S. I'd be taking to an Apple Authorized Provider to avoid voiding my warranty so I don't like to just give it a go coz, although I'd get a refund for the Crucial SSD if anything goes wrong, I'd still have to pay for their labour costs.
