Hello!

I have the late 2013 27" iMac and I know it has a PCI-e SSD connection slot. At the moment it's not in use. (only a 1TB HDD).

I do however have a Samsung 950 Pro M.2 256GB SSD.

Will it work, if I use the iFixit guide to take the iMac apart and insert this M.2 SSD?

In other words, will I have fusion drive activated between the 1TB HDD and the SSD?

It's a lot of steps to open up this iMac and I would not be very happy if I place the thing and it doesn't work... Hope to hear from you!

=== Update (10/26/2015) ===

Thank you for the respons!

There seems to be a lot of confusion.. I read in some tech articles that the connector used has the standard M.2 interface.. :( sure it won't fit?
