I love my iMac but it got really slow after a while. It was expensive to replace the internal drive so I got an external SSD drive and connected it through USB. Added 8GB of Ram and we were flying... Not so fast...

After a couple of years I ran out of room because of the "OTHER" space and the iMac became somewhat sluggish. I googled and found add of 3rd party products which I didn't feel like purchasing and created a more organic solution with the native software solution on the iMac. Here's what I did.

To fix it:
1- I partitioned the internal drive in half and erased it,

2- Installed MacOs Catalina on it
3- Used Migration Wizard to bring all data in from SSD
4- Wiped out the SSD again and applied Step 2 and 3 on it.

I saved around 200GB, got the iMac to be faster, saved a couple of hundred dollars by not upgrading to a new SSD and all that without installing any 3rd party software which I don't trust much no do I like to pay.

This will take you 2-3 hours depending on the size of data but you will love it when you Mac is blazing fast again.

Disclaimer: Please make a full backup before with Time Machine or any other backup solution so you don't lose data. I won't be responsible if you lose any data due to your mistakes. I have tried this twice and my iMac became brand new again (somewhat) twice!

Good Luck.
