The more I google it the more confused I get!
I have a i5 27" imac (with a 4850) which I bought last year. I would like to get an SSD, probably a 128mb OCZ Vertex 2E one fitted as well as the 1tb hard drive.
I gather this is a tricky job to fit yourself and I have a local shop who have said they think they can do it however I keep reading things suggesting problems. I have read a few articles suggesting that although Lion supports trim it only does on Apple supplied SSD drives. I have also read a few articles suggesting that Apple have made it very difficult to fit them after the original purchase from them?
I would be interested to hear from people who have fitted aftermarket ssd drives and wether they encountered any problems and who they got to carry out the work?
Cheers
Dave
