iMac Intel 21.5" EMC 3068 Hard Drive Replacement

소개

Follow the steps in this guide to upgrade or replace the SATA hard drive in a iMac Intel 21.5" EMC 3068. Note that if you are upgrading your drive, you will need to clone your existing hard drive onto the replacement prior to performing this upgrade to keep your files and operating system.

Some images in this guide use a 2015 iMac, which has minor visual differences. These differences do not affect the repair procedure.

    이 단계에 사용된 도구:
    iMac Intel 21.5" Cardboard Service Wedge
    $4.99
    구매

    • With the hinge free to move, the iMac will be unbalanced and hard to work on. Repairs are fast and easy with an iMac service wedge, but can be completed without one.

    • If you are using the iFixit cardboard service wedge, follow these assembly directions to put it together.

    • Before beginning any work on your iMac: Unplug the computer and press and hold the power button for ten seconds to discharge the power supply's capacitors.

    • Be very careful not to touch the capacitor leads or any exposed solder joints on the back of the power supply. Only handle the board by the edges.

    • Starting on the left of the display, near the power button, insert the iMac Opening Tool into the gap between the glass panel and the rear enclosure.

    • The hub on the iMac Opening Tool will keep you from pushing the wheel in too far. If using a different tool, insert no more than 3/8" into the display. Otherwise, you risk severing antenna cables and causing serious damage.

    • Use the tool like a pizza cutter—roll it along through the gap, and it will cut the foam adhesive through the center.

    • Be sure to always push with the handle behind the cutting wheel. If you pull, the wheel might get pulled out of the handle.

    • Run the tool up along the left side of the display.

    • While the opening tool cut most of the adhesive, the display will still be slightly adhered to the case. A plastic card will be necessary to free up the last of this adhesive.

    • Set the iMac face-up on a table.

    • Starting from the top right corner of the iMac, wedge a plastic card between the display and frame.

    • Be careful not to insert the plastic card more than 3/8", or you may damage internal components.

    • With both plastic cards inserted as shown near the corners, gently twist the cards sideways to increase the gap between display and case.

    • If there are any sections that seem to stick and won't separate, stop twisting and use one of the cards to cut the remaining adhesive.

    • Begin to lift the top of the display up from the frame.

    • Only lift the display a few inches—the display data and power cables are still connected to the logic board.

    • Continuing to support the display with one hand, flip up the metal retaining bracket on the display data cable.

    • Carefully pull the display data cable from its socket on the logic board.

    • Lift the display up from the frame and remove it from the iMac.

    • It may be necessary to slowly lift from one side to peel against the remaining adhesive.

    • Be very careful handling the display—it's big, heavy, and made of glass.

This tutorial is excellent but has the final step missing: how to replug the SATA connector given that it is stuck under the storage bay.
I had to unscrew the storage bay to be able to replug the SATA connector and follow the tutorial in reverse to finish it.
Don't try to remove the left speaker as it requires to remove the CPU fan first which adds extra steps to the process.

The most difficult part of the whole process was connecting the new HD to the connector (even if not stuck under the bay). There's not enough slack in the connector's cabling to allow use of one's fingers. It took me 20 minutes and the use of a couple of wooden popsicle sticks and a spudger to eventually nudge it in place. Otherwise, great tutorial Adam O'Camb!

2020 kaufte ich mir einen iMac 21,5 Zoll einfachste Ausführung (8GB RAM, 2,3 GhZ). Der Computer brauchte mindestens 65 Sekunden, um Applikationen hochzuladen, was die Arbeit mit dem Computer nahezu unmöglich machte. Letzte Woche habe ich die HDD-Festplatte dank des Reperatur-Kits von ifixit ausgetauscht. Seitdem funktioniert der Computer mühelos. Applikationen, Dokumente, Bilddateien lassen sich unter einer Sekunde öffnen. Man bekommt schon das Gefühl einen neuen iMac gekauft zu haben! Ich kann das Reperatur-Kit samt Anleitung nur wärmstens empfehlen. Hierbei ist allerdings zu beachten, dass die Reparatur genaustens nach Anleitung durchgeführt werden sollte. Kleiner Tipp: Wenn die Schrauben von dem Lautsprecher gelöst werden, lässt er sich leicht nach links verschieben. Damit ist das SATAkabel leichter zugänglich! Viel Erfolg!
