From the videos I have seen on YouTube, this bracket should work. The iMac uses cables to connect the hard drive so the location of the connectors is not an issue. The locations of the mounting screws on the bracket are the same as a hard drive so there is no problem there as well. The bracket is almost the same height as a hard drive so that is the only thing that needs to be checked.

I bought one of these drives to put in an older MacBook. I would suggest you remove the old old hard drive (it's very easy, takes 5 mins) Read the spec written on the hard drive and if this matches the new drive, should help ensure it will work. If your unsure how to remove, you tube it. Hope this helps

Most of this era iMac's have a special SuperDrive. It mounts about 1/2" further back than a normal drive. If you substitute a MacBook Drive for one of these, you will not be able to push the CD/DVD far enough into the drive, to allow the mechanism to grab the disk and pull it into the drive. I do not suggest you use this drive. Use the Profile Manager to get the part number of the installed drive, and get that exact one.

I am not an expert. I believe any Sata 2.5" hard drive should work. I have purchased several WD HDDs and Toshiba HDDs (2 of each) and they are all working perfectly. I use them for external hard drive storage and daily use. You might try to replace wit a Toshiba (but you surely can use either) as Toshiba is what Mac seems to use. The most important thing though is that its Sata 2.5"

Hi Alan. It worked in the 13" mid-2009 Macbook Pro I installed it in, so it should work in yours. Good luck!

I have the same model, a mid 2009 15" unibody MacBook Pro. Did this drive end up working for you?

Yes. If you have not replaced a drive on a mac before, you may want to take a look at this or other tutorials first to make sure you have the right tools on hand, and how to back up your old HD. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfiGF_pjqvM

I installed this hard drive in a MacBook Pro (15" Late 2007) and it was a perfect fit. It should fit in your MacBook Pro just fine.

I googled a few things that say it is, but I recommend you do some googling to make sure. Try entering "mac mini 2011 hard drive size" and see what you come up with.

Yes thats fine! You're macbook will fit, you will probably only use about half the space on the drive.

Ignore the other answer. The drive will fit fine. Any drive that does not exceed 9.5mm will work. The drive is compatible, just make sure it is formatted correctly

Yes, but it won't be easy! https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/iMac+Intel+24-Inch+EMC+2267+Optical+Drive+Replacement/9027

Hi, I suppose "YES". I work with a 27" iMac from Mid 2010. The new iMac does not work but the older ones should do. Regards Hermann

Hi, I am not sure but when I came to buy mine, I went to a website called: newegg.com.. there, u can search for ur harddrive by putting in the features of ur laptop and seeing what would b compatible. Another way is to call the apple helpline and they r usually very helpful even tho they wont have ur harddrive in stock anymore. after u purchase ur device, make sure to research 2009 step by step installation or chat with an apple representative as the majority of the guidelines online are for later versions now. Unfortunately I cant remember what the steps r but I remember the process of obtaining the information and I hope I was of help. :) good luck.

It didn't work on my older Mac Pro from 2009. The connectors don't line up vertically or horizontally. I'm not sure if it's the exact same product, but I can tell by the picture that it has the drive centered, so it definitely wouldn't work in my computer. It would have to be offset to compensate for the smaller drive. I can't say for sure it won't work for you if your Mac is newer, but it seems unlikely if they still have the slide in trays. You would need something designed specifically for a Mac Pro to line up the drive connectors. Unfortunately, the standard has the connectors on one side of the drive so the smaller size messes everything up. It didn't work on my older Mac Pro from 2009.

weird. Cuz, it seems I bought this, installed on my iMac 27 (late 2010). it matched all the specs needed for iMac. I've had no problems on iMac, and things have been working fine.
