Samsung 850 PRO 1TB SSD upgrade into a 2011 27" iMac.
I approached this upgrade with dread, but to be honest, it's very simple to do as long as you take your time and have the right tools to hand. The screen being kept fingerprint free really is the vital bit here, hence the reason I decided to wear gloves as I know I would touch the screen and be unable to live with the marks!
