Apple has announced a 3TB hard drive replacement program for some iMacs. The company says it’s determined that a “very small number” of 3TB hard drives used in 27-inch iMac systems, may fail under certain conditions. These systems were sold between December 2012 and September 2013.
Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) will replace affected hard drives free of charge. Apple is contacting affected iMac owners who provided a valid email address during the product registration process to let them know about this program. If you have not been contacted, but think you have a 3TB hard drive, you can enter your serial number at http://tinyurl.com/ndk57bf to see if it’s part of this program.
