greetings, according the the compatibility checker, the MX500 is supposed to be compatible with the imac 9,1 the imac 9,1 has a sata II nvidia mcp79 chipset and is apparently finicky with some drives. if there's an issue, usually the drive connects at sata I speed. i've noticed that sometimes the mx500 shows it is connected at sata II speeds but at other times, it connects at sata I speeds. is this a sign on incompatibility? is there a risk of data loss or corruption because of this?
