I don't know. I purchased them for my NAS drive. But I would be willing to guess that if the iMac uses a standard desktop 3.5" HD then it would probably work. Most slots in computers these days are either one of two kinds. 2.5" Notebook or 3.5" Desktop. One concern with using any HD is the heat production. If your case is very cramped, then you might run into heat issues if the replacement drive creates more heat. Otherwise, if you think your case will breathe well enough, then go for it.

I have a early 2009 MacBook Pro and the drive works perfectly. I hope that it will help you.

You could and it would work fine. I think that the drive would probably preform better hooked directly up to your iMac

I have used my Superdrive from my Macbook Pro, on this hub with my macbook air. It works file, and I have burned a few DVD/CD with it. The only problem with this hub is sometimes when I plug in a thumbdrive, it kicks my SATA drive and ipod (Ejects them) off my computer. Strangely, my ipad stays connected when this happens.

I purchased the one I got from amazon to go into my son's machine. If it is the same one I purchased then it should work. The seller that bought the drive from was sold by HAUSBELL I hope that this helps.

This is a hard drive meant to be installed in a server or Network Attached Storage. For performance sake, I would suggest getting a WD Black drive instead. That being said it should work just the same as this is a 3.5" hard drive, which is what is in this version of iMac.

I can't say for sure - I've put it in my late 2011 MacBook Pro 13". As far as I know (99% sure) the 2012 models have the exact same specs when it comes to the superdrive space. It will work with ANY SATA drive, whether it's HD, Hybrid or SSD. For $8 I'd take the risk!

Sorry, I do not know anything about Macs. But, I would check your owners manual. The SATA connector should be the same, but the height of the drive could be an issue, it might not fit in your HDD slot. Good luck.

Yes it will, I pulled my CDROM out of my Mac to run a hard drive in it's place so this hub was my solution to running the superdrive with my Macbook pro. I have copied from the super drive straight to my iPod hooked to this hub with no issues.. Hope that helps.

I have a mid 2009 Core 2 duo 13" Macbook and the superdrive failed. I ordered this UJ-898 replacement and it works fine. Anyone mechanically-minded could follow the instructions and even do the replacement themselves with a little care.

sorry for the long delay getting back to you. In my case, actually my son's iMac, it was much less than compatible. The performance with DISK UTILITY backup was very poor (15 times worse than expected) and it was not recognizable as a boot device. So, I can't provide a positive endorsement for the Seagate and iMac.

It will work but via USB 2.0 only. The USB 3 will step down to what your iMac has. If it has thunderbolt how ever that is better

Yes, it should work with no problems. The USB port on the cable is standard size, and it's backward-compatible for previous USB versions. You won't see the speed advantage because your older iMac probably won't support the newer USB transfer speeds, but it should still work with it.
