Hello I’ve just opened my iMac Late 2015 after 1 and half years of contemplating on opening it (it’s tough coz’ the display is now glued essentially).

I’m trouble shooting the Blade SSD (Apple’s NVME version) and to get there I’ve removed the hardisk, the left speaker.

I also removed the Bluetooth+Wifi Module to have it cleaned and the also right speaker.

Could I still turn this ON safely and isolate the Blade SSD evern without the speakers and Bluetootj module. I’ll used a flashdrive installer to check the Blade with Disk Utility. I’ll reset the NVRAM and SMC first.

Thank you. Advanced happy Easter.

Yeah all it needs is power supply and logic board. Preferably fan too
