I am trying to install a samsung 830 SSD(256GB) in my brand new 13" Macbook pro.
Whenever I install it and boot the mac I get three beeps.
If I put the old HD back in it works fine. The SSD works fine on a windows machine.
I have seen other Macbooks with this SSD work without a hitch.
Ive alreaddy tried to reinstall the ram since three beeps usually mean there is a problem with the ram. But this does not change the situation, HDD works, SSD three beeps.
What could be the problem?
UPDATE:
I tried repartitioning the SSD on a Imac, worked without problems.
Put it back in the Macbook, bang, three beeps, put the original HD in, boots just fine.
This is quite frustrating, both the SSD and the Mac are brand new.
If I cant solve it myself which do I send back? The Macbook works fine with the original disk, the SSD works fine in any other PC.
