The third port should be for testing the hard drive.

@ThePapiGfunk I don't think I would recommend this as a system OS hard drive, but just a data drive. Because it's a "green" hard drive, it has variable speeds which can sometimes give you issues if you're running the OS off of it. So, for your iMac I'd look for the same brand hard drive that's in there now (could be seagate, or something else), but a steady speed like 7200 rpm. Read this: rhino. im/6

Thank you for the info.

@domars79 Usually the SATA cables come with your motherboard. These hard drives do not come with any cables. If you need to buy any, I highly recommend cablewholesale. com. If you order from there, you can use code 5FBE956 to get free shipping. Their cables are very good quality and super cheap! Thanks
Didn't it come with a poercable ? :O. Thx you helped me locate the power, and i have the same question like you on that port on the right.

hey man I have a quick question hopefully you could answer it or anyone, Im low in memory on my iMac 2009 model and I was looking to upgrade my hard drive, do you think this hard drive will work with macs or only PC. Im tired of my iMac going slow because I don't have no more memory left only about 4gb left

@ThePapiGfunk If you don't get the same brand, then the temperature sensor plugin won't work with your iMac, therefore forcing the fans to go maximum speed ALL THE TIME. Which can be extremely annoying.

@RhinoFeed oh k so you recommend to get the same brand as the hard drive I have now since the iMac has a Hitachi SATA hard drive..
