Apple, yup it’s out of warranty

by Michael on February 5th, 2010

So the warranty for my iMac is out. By a little bit. Looks like the HDD has failed and unfortunately the HDD doesn’t come with a manufacturers warranty when it’s put inside an Apple computer. So it is I find myself browsing for instructions on how to replace the HDD and for which drive I should get. Currently the 320GB drive that is in the iMac doesn’t get used but for the price point I can get a 500GB drive that suits my needs perfectly and it comes with a manufacturers warranty.

Looks like I’ll grab that drive and slide it on into the iMac. Also, who would have thunk that you use a suction cup to get into the iMac. Go figure.

    w00t, those Black drives are sick! Would be my choice if I were to buy a new system drive.
