Does the T8 Torx have to be security type? In the guide it only says remove T8 torx screws. But never says if they are security type or not.

Evan Lewis - Antwoord

Not necesary to be secured

David Medrano -

Is it possible to replace it with an SSD? If yes which are compatible and what about the termal sensor?

Jelle V - Antwoord

Watch that LCD temp sensor cable guys, it's a !@#$% to repair or replace. It runs around the monitor housing and can get severed by a bezel screw if not hidden carefully before attaching the outer housing of the iMac. If you tear it, here's the part number and discussion of this very issue: https://discussions.apple.com/message/24... Apple Part Number: 922-8236

The T8 Torx does *not* have to be security type. However it is critical to have a long, thin, dedicated T8 screwdriver, not one that is part of a kit with interchangeable tips (and thus a thick collar that won't fit into the narrow slot). I got the kit, it didn't work, returned it and got an unmagnetized T8 with 2.5" length. I then magnetized it with a strong refridge magnet (which didn't work well), so better yet after I removed the 8 screws (Step 11), I magnetized the screws themselves, which worked great.
