6. Superdrive. SWAPPED OUT FOR A BRAND NEW 120GB OWC MERCURY ELECTRA SSD WITH 3 YEARS WARRANTY. PURCHASED AND INSTALLED 2 DAYS AGO. ALSO INCLUDES THE DATA DOUBLER SO IT FITS SNUGLY AND PERFECTLY INSIDE.

Links of OWC items purchased for upgrades direct from OWC in the US

OWC Data Doubler & OWC Mercury Electra 3G SSD: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/DDMBS6E120/
OWC In-Line Digital Thermal Sensor Cable: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/DIDIMACHDD09/

*Certain iMacs require the in-line digital thermal sensor cable in order to manage the fan speeds (the older drives had proprietary cables). With this cable, you can now easily upgrade to any SATA drive in future without worry about mucking about with software to manage fan speeds.

Warranty: None except for the new SSD which has 3 years warranty

Dealing method: COD only Prefer you to view it before confirming purchase anyway.

Location of seller: Jaya One, Jalan Universiti, Petaling Jaya

Contact method/details: PM

Age of item: 3+ years (first hand user)

---

Item(s) conditions: Excellent especially with new SSD and 12GB RAM, runs extremely quick and smooth.

Picture: As attached. Please ignore Bose speakers in the background, I'm keeping that smile.gif

Reason for sale: Just wanted to try upgrading an iMac and I have plenty of other desktops. Originally my wife's but she hasn't touched it since she got her new Macbook Air.
