21,5" - 27"
( SSD REQUIRED )
What does the advert consist of? ...
The price only covers the installation of Mac OS MONTEREY via Open Core, and does not include the SSD.
The total amount of the add covers the Mac OS MONTEREY installation service via Open Core (on your own SSD) and return delivery.
The
installation will take place on a 2.5” SSD you already own (brand and
capacity of your choice), which you must send to us in advance, at your
own expense, using your country traditional National Postal Service (
equivalent for Colissimo la Poste service in France )
(For logistical and security reasons, we do not accept delivery of SSD disks by any other means or shipping company).
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions. More details below.

Which Apple models are compatible?
Installation only for IMAC 2010, 2011, 2012 & 2013 - 21.5“ - 27”.
Which hard drives are compatible?
The
brand and capacity of the SSD hard drive is up to you, as long as it's
in 2.5” SATA format, in good condition and working properly.
Installation on traditional HDDs should not be considered, as they would
be too slow to support a system such as Open Core.
How to send us your SSD for installation?
The
SSD must be sent to us immediately after placing the order, via your
country traditional National Postal Service. The postal address to be
used for shipment will be communicated to you upon receipt of your
order.
How long will it take?
Once we've received
your SSD, the whole installation process can take between 4 and 5 days
(excluding weekends), depending on our current workload.
How will the SSD be returned to me after installation?
For international Order we offer the following shipping service as default:
Tracked letter international service = economic, no transport compensation insurance included.
Note:
If you wish a transport services including a parcel compensation insurance we can
arrange that but it will cost you extra, starting from 15 euros
shipping cost and coverage starting from 35 euros) Contact us if you would like further details.
How do I use the newly installed SSD once I've received it?
It will be 'configured' so that you can install it in your machine and start immediately.
Will it replace the Mac's current internal hard drive?
Yes,
you'll be able to mount it inside the machine, replacing the current
drive, but you can still boot the SSD by using an external USB adapter
(not supplied) and booting by pressing the option (alt) key.
What language will the new Mac OS come in?
By
default, the system will be delivered in French (for France) or English
(for the rest of the world). However, as with all standard Mac OS
systems, it will always be possible to change the language of the Mac OS
delivered (e.g. German, Italian, Spanish, etc.).
What are the risks?
None,
really! Obviously, you'll need to be able to open your Mac machine to
replace the existing internal hard drive, or use your Mac Os MONTEREY SSD externally with a USB adapter.
Can I recover the current data on my disk and transfer it to the SSD with MONTEREY?
The
SSD you send us must be completely empty or freshly erased, for a
complete zero installation, equivalent to that found on a newly
purchased Apple machine.
Before sending us your SSD, you'll need to
copy and back up your current data onto another disk, and then you have to transfer
it to the SSD prepared with the new MONTEREY Mac OS, as soon as you receive it.
The
migration procedure is therefore the same as when you purchase a new
Apple machine, and can be carried out either manually or using the
“Migration Assistant” application included with all standard MAC OS.
Is it worth doing?
The patched OPEN CORE version of Mac OS MONTEREY
offers the advantage of running a newer Mac OS system on older,
otherwise obsolete Mac models, and benefiting from the speed of a new
SSD drive, instead of an old HDD.
******* Note that this installation service normally costs at least 160-180 euros in shops ******
