Hi Community
Can I use use a stand-alone screen (eg Samsung) as a second display with my iMac 21.5 inch (late 2013)?

Processor 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB
Thanks in anticipation

Yes, use the Thunderbolt connection on your iMac.
Once the display is connected, you can visit System Preferences -> Displays and disable the option to mirror the display.
