OWC Data Doubler Optical Bay Hard Drive/SSD Mounting Solution with tools (for iMac 2009-2011)
Includes everything needed to replace your optical drive with a second hard drive or SSD.
Boost your storage capacity by adding up to an additional 2.0TB of internal storage with a second hard drive, or enjoy near-instantaneous boot and app loading times by adding a Solid State Drive (SSD). Configuration flexibility is yours when you replace your 2009-2011 iMac's internal SuperDrive with an OWC Data Doubler with a hard drive or SSD.
The custom-engineered Data Doubler bracket comes ready to mount any 2.5" SATA drive up to 12.5mm in height. Once you've installed the entire Data Doubler drive assembly into your 2009-2011 iMac's optical drive bay, you can customize how you want your internal storage to perform.
Drive customization is easy and built right into OS X as the new Data Doubler mounted drive can be setup using Apple's Disk Utility program in which you can format the drive, create a RAID array using two drives together, or partition the new drive. Once formatted you can also setup the second drive as a Time Machine backup so you can take your backup with your wherever you go.
OWC provides free installation videos that guide this DIY upgrade step-by-step for each specific Mac model. Data Doubler also comes backed by OWC's award-winning U.S.A. based technical support team which is readily available to assist you with your upgrade should you have any questions.
Supports: SATA 6Gb/s, 3Gb/s & 1.5Gb/s
Interface: 2.5" Drive or SSD (Solid State Drive) of up to 12.5mm height.
*Professional installation of Data Doubler into an iMac is highly recommended due to the degree of installation difficulty.

This OWC 6G SSD Model is compatible with most 2009-2011 iMac models including:
iMac 2006-current (All Intel Models) NOTE exceptions below
Special note for specific 2009 iMacs.
iMac models with model ID:
iMac10,1
iMac11,1
While a 6G SSD does function, it will only do so at SATA Revision 1.0 (1.5Gb/s, 150MB/s) speeds rather that the SATA Revision 2.0 (3.0Gb/s 300MB/s) speed the computer can deliver.
The Mercury Electra 3G SSD is the OWC-recommended upgrade option for the iMacs listed in the special note above.

Everything you need for the job. It's all top quality equipment, especially the star of the show - the bracket itself. Installation was surprisingly straightforward and took less time than expected thanks to the handy linked video. Very satisfied with the product, shipping and customer service.
