In the HDD replacement guide, you state, "During reassembly, be sure that the thermal sensor connector is connected to set of pins closest to the SATA connectors."
Does that mean connect it as you did when you uninstalled it, or to assemble it another way by flipping the connector?
Is dit een goede vraag?

Put it back the way it originally was.

I found what your talking about but I don't get what the problem is. My fan noise is still like a jet. I know what normal fan noise sounds like, but this thing is on full blast after about 15 mins of web browsing. I checked the thermal senor wire to the HDD and all was connected correctly, the way it was before I opened it. I worked very carefully and followed the guides exactly.
I am getting frustrated being this is the second iMac in 4 days. Both doing the same thing after upgrading the drive. The tech support from OWC said that the HDD was compatible and the fan noise was due to incorrect sensor connection. After double checking, I am all out of options.
There are three different part numbers for this sensor cable:
922-9215 Hitachi
922-9216 Seagate
922-9217 Western Digital
I've never seen anything like this. What brand of drive did you get?
Hook it back up the way it was before teardown. +
