## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work for installing an SSD in the super drive bay on an imac?  Thanks in advance**
A: Verify iMac has the necessary mounting points.  Use this kit (see link below) to install the SSD drive while retaining your Super (DVD) Drive.http://www.yourmacstore.com/internal-ssd...If above won't work and you don't want to mickey mouse mount the SSD, you can use OWC's data doubler kit to replace the Super (DVD) Drive (link below).http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20W...To use above route, make sure the SSD is connected to the SATA III port on the main board of the iMac since only 2 of the 3 SATA ports on the Mid 2011 iMac are SATA III compliant.Although, this is only relevant if your SSD is SATA III or your IMac is older than 2011.Found this too from maxupgrades.com:MaxConnect SSD bay Hard Drive kit for 2.5 inch Drive for 2011 iMac 27 Models - SZ-IMACSSDBAYMT-02 - http://www.maxupgrades.com/istore/index.... Should work if necessary mounting points for the SSD bay are in IMac. I would get the SSD first AFTER verifying it will fit in the IMac mounting points.  If the SSD is too small then you will need the AdaptaDrive, which I have used in my MacBookPro & PC's.  They are very price comepetitive & come with all parts required & so far, after installing 8 of them, no issues!  Also recommend the Samsung 840 Pro SSD.  I have 8 of the 500Gbyte!  Great SSD designed for YEARS of hassle free service.Best of luck & hope this helps you.

**Q: There's no picture to confirm. On the connect that the 2.5" drive connects to, will it accept a SAS drive. No Notch between power and sata interface.**
A: This is for Solid state Hard drive adapter from 2.5 to 3.5 space holder. you will need this for desktop hard drive slot.

**Q: What about the power if i want to setup a Notebook HDD into my Dektop (format purposes)?**
A: This adaptor has all the same jacks as a full-sized SATA HDD. I used this to put an SSD in my 2012 (old-style chassis) Mac Pro. It just simply screws into whatever bracket would normally be holding the HDD and then you plug the same cables into the aforementioned jacks/ports on the adaptor. You would have to look at the pictures, as it has been too long for me to remember, but I am pretty sure there are mounting holes (for the screws) on both the top and on the side of the adaptor. I used the top holes (as I have a Mac Pro) and it installed flawlessly. If it is an older Mac Pro like mine, you screw the bracket into the carrier and slide the carrier into place (as Apple has the SATA plugs set in fixed locations in the back). If you are using a PC where the SATA wires are plugged in by hand, just put the 3.5" drive in the bracket, mount the bracket just like any other SATA drive, and then plug in the cables by hand.

**Q: My imac has sata 2.0 interface (3gb/s). will this product also upgrade the speed to be sata 3.0 (6gb/s)?**
A: Hello Steve Li,Great question. The NewerTech AdaptaDrive is fully compatible with SATA I,II and III. However you will only get drive speeds if the interface your computer has. If you have a SATA II interface you will only get SATA II speeds, it will not upgrade to SATA III. If you have any further questions, please email support@newergalaxy.com.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The adapter frame appears to be aluminum and very sturdy, but very light
*by R***C on September 12, 2016*

This worked out perfectly on my HDD to SSD upgrade on iMac 7,1 (mid 2007) 20inch. The adapter frame appears to be aluminum and very sturdy, but very light. I know some people mentioned they had a DOA or soldering was bad and had a short, and someone mentioned the included screws did not fit. However, I was lucky and did not encounter any issues.I chose Samsung 850 EVO 2.5inch 1TB drive for my upgrade for better warranty and read/write speeds. I spent 3-5 days skimming through forums catching up on others that have my same Mac, but I couldn't find anyone specifically saying this SSD would work. Huzzah, it did! For anyone else out there that want to stretch some more years out of their old iMac, I did start with this reputable manufacturer's website wizard to check on what works for my Mac.[...]I already got my system upgraded to 4GB RAM, but why did I decide to upgrade my 320GB HDD this late in the game?? Well, funny thing. I thought I had a bunch of malware on my old HDD, as it was booting up, shutting down, running apps super SLOW. Usually, slowness is a good indication. Now, my OCD really wanted to nuke those malware bytes in memory, so I elected to run a 35 pass drive wipe. This probably pushed a near 10 year old drive over the edge with it's worn out moving parts. Firing up the old Mac OS X Lion installation CD, then eventually getting all the way to downloading El Capitan after the usual updates, the installation wizard detected S.M.A.R.T errors and stopped the installation. When I upgraded the RAM, the system did seem like it got a boost, and well, this system overall is still working very well for web surfing, so I checked out what other people had to say about their old iMacs. Looking at the Mac's System Profile and Apple.com tech specs, it was very hard to find specifics to what level SATA the mobo is running. It appeared to be SATA i. In the Crucial wizard, you will find the suggestion is for a SATA iii drive (SATA 6.0Gb/s). I found on some forums where people were saying the Mac's old HDD is actually connected to SATA ii. After my installation, I can confirm, YES, the Mac is on SATA ii (3.0 Gb/s). For novices like me in this realm, each level SATA is apparently backwards compatible. I found this following article, [...]Ok, I'm sure some of you are still asking, why go with a SATA iii 1TB SSD Drive? For me, I'm thinking ahead. When this iMac is completely done and useless even with web surfing, then I can still repurpose this SSD on a new system.Samsung 850 EVO - 1TB - 2.5-Inch SATA III Internal SSD (MZ-75E1T0B/AM)I followed the build steps exactly and worked out perfectly. Even though, this video is for HDD to HDD upgrade, it will work with the Samsung SSD.[...]when you use this or a similar adapter.NewerTech AdaptaDrive 2.5" to 3.5" SATA Drive Converter BracketFor anyone that wants to just start fresh with a new OS install without cloning your old drive, when you go through the Mac OS X installation CD, and your drive is not listed, it is because you need to go up to the Utilities menu and format the drive with Mac OS X Extended (journaled) with GUID. I hard restarted the system 3 times before I realized that I needed to format the new drive, so the installation wizard can read the drive.In the end, my iMac got a rebirth with the new and much faster drive. It is booting up, shutting down, and launching apps way faster. Keep in mine, when the SSD is backwards compatible, it will not reach it's full drive potential. Check out the details that I posted above from SanDisk

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Used to upgrade the original HDD in my iMac 14,2 Late 2013
*by J***N on July 16, 2025*

Upgraded the original Apple HDD in my iMac 14,2 Late 2013 to 1TB. NOTE: since SSDs are smaller (2.5") than the old HDDs (3.5") it required a SATA SSD 2.5” to 3.5” Converter Bracket adapter. I used it with a 1 TB SATA SSD Samsung 870 EVO. I removed the mounting posts from the old HDD and installed them in the adapter so it fit the Apple OEM HDD mounts. Works great - runs faster and cooler.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Fit" for purpose
*by W***R on November 10, 2015*

I bought two, one for installing a Crucial MX200 1Tb in a PC and the second for the same drive in an iMac (2011, 12.2). The adapter worked perfectly in both, the drive clicked snugly on to the connector and the holes for the mounting screws for the drive to the adapter were precise (actually the adapter has slotted holes so there is a lot of room to play with).The screw holes on the side for mounting in to the PC's cradle and for the iMacs rails were also precise.The open design allows free airflow and being aluminum these seem tough with no flexing (not that that would matter anyway).I saw in other 1 star reviews that there have been issues with the solder on the connector shorting out against each other so I checked mine, the soldering was perfect with easily visible gaps between the points.
