    Q: Can I upgrade the memory to 32GB?

    A: Yes. The maximum amount of RAM this machine can support is 64 GB.

    Q: Will Best Buy transfer the data from my old iMac to the new iMac? What is the process for this data transfer?

    A: BB will do it but for a fee. I called Apple and they told me how to do it. They will walk you through it and for free. You have 90 days of AppleCare. I purchased it for 3 years for $169. Hope this helps.

    Q: Does this computer have a built in disk drive

    A: No. You need to buy the Apple USB Super Drive - $79.

    Q: Can I order this iMac with the optional i7 processor?

    A: At the time I bought my iMAC, I was looking for the i7, also. Best Buy only stocked the i5 and I would have had to go to Apple, which wasn't convenient. For what I do as an artist, i5 is plenty, which is a delightful surprise. I'm keeping it! Hope this helps.

    Q: The heading for this iMac says 2TB Fusion Drive but the specifications say it has an SSD (Solid State Drive). Which is it? And if it is an SSD drive what capacity does it have?

    A: The 2TB Fusion drive is a 128GB SSD combined with an ~ 1.85TB Spinning hard drive. Apple uses software to put most of the operating system as well as your most commonly used files onto the SSD portion for fast retrieval. PLEASE NOTE: The 1TB fusion drive only has 24GB SSD which is why I am in the process of taking my 1TB iMac back to bestbuy to swap for this model with the 2TB fusion drive.

    Q: Does this computer have an HDMI (female) port? Is there a possible converter attachment to use with this computer? I need this computer to work with my Wacom Cintiq 13HD tablet. The HDMI cable is the first one pictured on the left.

    A: It does not have an HDMI connection. I used a Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to HDMI adapter to connect a second monitor and it works great. The connections are on the back side of the unit so they can be a little bit of a pain to plug and unplug.

    Q: I need a workhorse to edit and process big chunky 4K video files. How much RAM do I need to upgrade to do that comfortably and what would a ballpark cost be to get it to 32 or 64 of RAM? Ballparks is all I am looking for.......

    A: It will work out of the box, but to max out ram to 64 gigs, self installed ( which is easy) your looking at about $200. Remember macs ultilize Ram much differently then a PC. It’s like a hybrid car vs a gas car, the Mac optimizes the ram, little goes a long way. I’m running 8 gigs, and am using some power heavy software such as photoshop and premiere.
