I purchased the Flexx DIY Bundle with Samsung 870 Evo SSD to swap main HDD for SSD on 21.5-inch iMac 2012 to 2019 and it was a breeze. Everything supplied was just brilliant as was the instruction video. Well done Flexx super service. I used the old HDD enclosure to reinstall the OS and all my files. Thanks.
