iMac ssd

[Zejtun]

I was wondering why the 512ssd in the 3.5 gHz, 21.5" iMac cost twice as much as the one in the 3.0gHz 21.5" iMac?

Thanks,

You're asking why the 512 SSD upgrade is $400 in the quad-core 3.5GHz iMac versus $300 in the 6-core 3.0GHz machine? It's because the quad-core machine base config is a 1TB HD and the 6-core base config is a 1TB Fusion Drive, which is a $100 upgrade from the 1TB HD. So, it's the same overall cost.

Thanks, I see that now.
