Ce dont vous avez besoin

  1. Installing iMac Intel 24" EMC 2134 and 2211 Dual Hard Drive, Access Door: étape 1, image 1 de 1
    • Loosen the single Phillips screw in the center of the access door.

    • This screw is captive in the access door.

    • Remove the access door from your iMac.

    • The glass panel is fixed onto the front bezel with fourteen magnets around its perimeter.

    • Stick two suction cups to opposing corners of the glass panel.

    • To attach the suction cups we sell, first position the suction cup with the movable handle parallel to the face of the glass panel. While lightly holding the suction cup against the glass, raise the movable handle until it is parallel with the other handle.

    • If your suction cups refuse to stick, try cleaning both the glass panel and the suction cup with a mild solvent such as Windex.

  3. Installing iMac Intel 24" EMC 2134 and 2211 Dual Hard Drive: étape 3, image 1 de 1
    • Gently pull the glass panel straight up off the iMac.

    • The glass panel has several positioning pins around its perimeter. To avoid shearing these pins off the glass panel, be sure to only pull straight up during removal.

    • Be meticulous about cleaning the LCD and the inside face of the glass panel before reinstallation, as any fingerprints or dust trapped inside will be annoyingly visible when the display is on.

    • Remove the following 12 screws securing the front bezel to the rear case:

    • Eight 13 mm T8 Torx screws

    • Four 25 mm T8 Torx screws

    • You may have different-length screws depending on your model:

    • Six 13 mm T8 Torx screws

    • Four 25 mm T8 Torx screws

    • Two 35 mm T8 Torx screws

    • The front bezel is still attached to the iMac by the microphone cable.

    • Gently lift the front bezel from its top edge off the rear case. It helps to use your thumbs to push down very gently on the corners of the display.

    • Once the top edge of the front bezel has cleared the rear case, rotate the front bezel toward the stand and lift it off the rear case.

    • When reinstalling the front bezel, start at the lower edge and make sure it is flush with the rear case before lowering the top edge onto the iMac.

  6. Installing iMac Intel 24" EMC 2134 and 2211 Dual Hard Drive: étape 6, image 1 de 1
    • Disconnect the microphone cable connector, removing tape as necessary.

    • For the front bezel to sit properly, be sure to tuck the microphone cable and connector into the void next to the camera board.

    • Disconnect the LCD temperature sensor by pulling the connector straight out of its socket on the logic board.

    • If necessary, de-route the LCD temperature sensor cable from behind the logic board.

  8. Installing iMac Intel 24" EMC 2134 and 2211 Dual Hard Drive: étape 8, image 1 de 1
    • Remove the two 5.3 mm T6 Torx screws securing the display data cable to the logic board.

  9. Installing iMac Intel 24" EMC 2134 and 2211 Dual Hard Drive: étape 9, image 1 de 1

    • Lay the iMac down on a table before you remove the LCD so that it doesn't fall.

    • Remove the eight 12 mm T8 Torx screws securing the display panel to the rear case.

    • Lift the right side of the display panel a few inches up from the iMac.

    • Do not lift the LCD all the way up; there are still connectors attaching the LCD to the internals.

    • With the LCD lifted, disconnect the LCD cable by pulling down.

    • The LCD cable is attached to the underside of the power supply; be careful where you put your fingers so you don't get zapped by a capacitor.

    • On reassembly, you may find it helpful to remove the power supply, reconnect the LCD power cable, and then reinstall the power supply.

    • Alternatively, the LCD power cable can be disconnected from the LCD, rather than the power supply.

    • Insert the flat end of a spudger between the optical drive connector and the body of the optical drive.

    • Twist the spudger to separate the connector from the optical drive.

    • It may be necessary to work from alternating sides of the connector until it is disconnected.

  17. Installing iMac Intel 24" EMC 2134 and 2211 Dual Hard Drive: étape 17, image 1 de 1
    • Lift the optical drive out of the rear case and pull it away from the side of the rear case to release the strip of EMI tape attached to its surface.

    • The optical drive thermal sensor is still attached to the underside of the optical drive.

    • If necessary, remove the piece of foam tape covering the optical drive thermal sensor.

    • To remove the optical drive thermal sensor, use the tip of a spudger to lift the center finger of the thermal sensor bracket while applying slight tension to the thermal sensor cable.

    • If your thermal sensor is stuck to the optical drive, skip to the next step.

  19. Installing iMac Intel 24" EMC 2134 and 2211 Dual Hard Drive: étape 19, image 1 de 1
    • Use the flat end of a spudger to pry the optical drive thermal sensor bracket up off the adhesive securing it to the optical drive.

    • If the adhesive gets dirty or will not stick to your new optical drive, place some double-sided tape under the two semicircular ears of the thermal sensor bracket.

  20. Installing iMac Intel 24" EMC 2134 and 2211 Dual Hard Drive: étape 20, image 1 de 1
    • Use a spudger to remove the small piece of EMI foam from the bottom of the optical drive.

These iMacs use ATA DVD drives. Using the SATA drive enclosure linked above is guaranteed to fail. :-(

My EMC 2134 has a SATAII optical drive.

I apologize for the reply after over a year.

No iMac 24 "both 2007 and 2008 can accommodate a SATA Superdrive. This is certain.

It is clear that this installation is made to the adapter referred to as "Related Products": [produit lié absent ou désactivé : IF107-079].

So any HDD or SSD you enter this run at high speed to 100 MB / sec of UltraATA100.

Do I assume correctly that this iMac model doesn't have two SATA ports on the logic board, so a dual 2.5" SSD/HDD drive could be installed in the 3.5" bay with an adapter/bracket? This way one could save the optical drive... Anyone?

All I have to say on this thread is: I can’t even begin to understand how this machine is still running as it is. When it was new, circa 2007-2008, a coffee-like beverage was knocked off a shelf above the iMac. It poured all the way through to the bottom. Even though it missed the power supply, it covered everything else INCLUDING the Superdrive. Which still ran but obviously the eye was permanently blind. Between the primary fan and heat dissipation block, there was about one square centimeter of partially obstructed airway. the rest was caked at about a 2-3mm depth. All of the black consolidating foam? Turned to dust at the slightest touch. This was initially going to be a part out on eBay journey. After all, to find a replacement 24” display would be legendarily unlikely. The way this machine was running… another day at the park. She’s clean and I’m keeping her.

AMAZING GUIDE… This was my first iMac teardown :-)

If only I could share the photos and video…
