Helpful answer

Yes, your iMac must have already had an HDD 2.5" installed, then no problem, provided you have the glue for the glass. If you have a flash memory installed, then you have to organise the cable first, which is not impossible with original Apple parts, but not exactly easy. Shouldn't be a problem otherwise, if you pay attention to the few small things, Google ifixit, they'll show you how it's done, otherwise there's probably a few companies that will also do a conversion, if Digitec offers something like that super, otherwise you can take a look in Güterstrasse in Basel.
