Hey guys, I know their are some super tech Mac people here on the forum and I have a question. I have an older iMac 24 EMC# 2134 mid 2007 and the HDD is on it's way out, it's making a buzzing noise. I don't have the coin to replace it with a new machine as I would like to so I'm trying to squeeze every last drop of life out of it.
I can get a Seagate Barracuda 1 TB 7200RPM STAT 600 and a 240 GB 2.5" SATA 6Gbps from Crucial for a total of $176 + ship which will be adequate but I was wondering if I should go with an SSD hybrid ? I found a 2TB SSD from ifixit $112 but unsure of the compatibility or reliability of the hardware they use. I have a question to them to be answered in regards to that.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated as I fall way short when it comes to computers.
Thanks.
