27" Late 2013 iMac Full NVMe SSD Upgrade

See the entire process of a 27" Late 2013 iMac NVMe SSD upgrade in this video!
These otherwise fast and reliable iMacs are let down by their slow and unreliable mechanical hard drives. We rectify this by fitting a blisteringly quick NVMe SSD. This transforms the iMac, getting it up and running faster than it would have when new!
This fantastic video of our upgrade was put together for us by the talented folks over on ThatsHowWeDo. Please go and check out their channel for more repair videos!

    Very very professional demonstration. I have downloaded it and will use it as a reference guide when I upgrade my iMac.

    The only things I would have done while it was apart, was change the plastic tension retainers for the springs that keep the monitor at a set angle, with a metal plate (these break and the monitor droops, happened to me) and remove the CPU heat sink and clean/replace the thermal paste. Makes sense to do all these maintenance items when the machine is disassembled. Maybe would have even replaced the internal HD with an SSD for even more storage.

    One of the best "how to" videos i've seen in years. I have this computer. Didn't know i could put an NVME SSD drive in there. I have one and I'm going to do it. Thank you for helping me to be brave and get the job done!

    Really nice video, I will do the same with my iMac (same model, late 2013, 27 ″). One thing I’m a bit surprise is the way you manipulate the power supply… In many other video and text about this kind of upgrade, they say to avoid touching the power supply, because you risk taking a not funny electrical shock.

    Great video. I'll be trying this myself soon on my old 2013 iMac. Does the battery need to be replaced or is it just a good idea to get it done while you're in there?

    Great guide. What spec is the nvme drive screw? It’s not the standard one that PC motherboards use right?
