Buy internal SSD?

Where can I buy an SSD for my iMac Retina 5K ?

I would like to replace the one on the motherboard and not the SATA 3TB.

I have a Fusion Drive 3To, I would separate them and I would like a SSD 512 GB only for OSX (because 128 GB is too small) and my 3 TB for storage.

This SSD on Crucial Store look be not compatible : http://www.crucial.com/usa/en/ssd/ct512m...

Not yet. It's proprietary that means there are no 3rd party sources.

Presently Apple is the only source for the custom SSD units they use in the iMacs.

To add to the confusion the specs for the SSD's have changed a few times between the different series so you can't use the older SSD units in your new 5K iMac. For now you'll need to wait.

Here's some better sources to watch:
