Hello i've had an Imac 24" 2008-2009 for a while and recently my hard drive crashed and i've not been able to repair it. I'm thinking about replacing it but i'm unsure what hard drive would be a good replacement. i do not know what kind of SATA cable it uses or if there is any trouble with certain hard drives compatibility with this computer. If you know anything about this please leave suggestions or feedback as it is highly appreciated!

I'd like to get in to streaming and a friend told me an I7 would be best then Thank you for your reply!
