Sep 6, 2016 10:48 PM in response to lune-cheungby NickFromLE,Hi Lune,
I had 3 choices...
the SSD Slot Add in Kit from OWC
https://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/SSDIM12Y960/
or what I did:
SATA Blade SSD Module - Dual SSD Drive Kit for iMac 27 Inch 2012 Model
plus an mSata or m2.Sata 1TB HDD which i connected there. Its very small and fit in every case of an iMac...
And you can also ebay for existing original Blades by Apple (it should come from an iMac 2012):
I took the cheaper way and paid about 270$, the OWC Kit is about 445$ but includes screwdriver and screw to fix the blade...
I had a screw by myself and the screwdrivers as well. You need a Torx T10 and T25. Just watch the video by OWC, its great:

Its just up to you what you wanna spend.
Cheers,

I can confirm that the PSU that is replaced was also the Delta (Model: ADP-300AF T).
All going well with my iMac since replacing the PSU.
Best

Sep 7, 2016 5:52 PM in response to NickFromLEby lune-cheung,Thanks for the great information.
I have 128G fusion drive already as a fusion, look like the people using dual connections to boost the speed up to 900Mbs. I may consider that in the future.
I just bought the Samsung 850 Evo 1Tb SSD. I am planning to install this SSD when I swap out the PSU.
Also, The PSU I have bought is a Liteon, and I am still waiting for its arrival.
The reason I bought the Liteon, because most of the iMac PSU are found as Delta. I suspect Delta has more issues than Delta, I just give it a try.
I will do some stress test once I installed the Liteon PSU. see how does it go?
Regards,
Lune
