Hello, I have started to notice that my 2015 iMac's 7200rpm HDD is slow compared to my other computers with an SSD. I was wondering what might be my options to try to make it faster? I am too nervous to change the internal HDD because of the high risk of breaking the display. Is there a TB2 to...

I have a Late 2014 27" (3.5 i5). The fusion drive is having issues. I use this machine in my law office, and it's mission critical for my workflow.

Hello, I have a late 2015 iMac 27", which is mostly used to make orchestral music (it requires a LOT of space for the sample libraries and the fastest SSDs possible for samples streaming). I was wondering if you could point me to a hub that I could connect to the Thunderbolt (2 for what I know...
