I finally got round to something I've been meaning to do for a while now. Install an SSD in my mid-2011 iMac instead of the next to useless optical drive.
I'll not lie, the install process is pretty nerve wracking if you've never opened up an iMac before (I hadn't), but I managed to get the drive installed with no issues. I went for a Samsung 500GB EVO 850 and the difference in performance is unbelievable. I'm currently using the Sierra beta and it honestly feels like a new Mac. For ~£150 I've successfully put off buying a new computer for a couple of years
