@ Michael: You sure putting that SSD their is a good strategy? Isn't it going to get too hot? Especially since users have commented how hot it gets at the back already. It's not blocking any vents is it?

ssd's have no moving parts hence no friction hence no heat production

= basic physics

you'd think anyone would know that , lol

Gee, that must be why CPUs and graphics cards don't need cooling, no moving parts! Oh, wait...

• There is no vents there and the area is not hot - it is just a hollow space.

• The SSD draws about 0.069 watts in action, and idles around 0.054 watts - it won't get very hot.

• The USB port can't output more than ~2.5 watts.

• I see no reason for why it would be a problem - and a sales pitch is that you can put a drive and an apple tv in the space. 

The CPU in my MacBook Pro goes up to 47 watts, and the GPU to 33 watts. They do much more work than the SSD - but sure, electronics can get very hot! But I think I am safe with the SSD.
