Hello all,
I need some help.
2 days ago my MBP wigged out. The dock vanished and the system kept crashing. DU reported no problems. I then tried reinstalling Mountain Lion. It failed half way through. When I rebooted I received a message telling me the hard drive had a problem that could not be fixed and needed replacing a S.M.A.R.T error.
I am having trouble getting anything off of the hard drive due to the mac running painfully slow. I am taking it to a data recovery specialist monday.
In the meantime I wondered if anyone had experienced this before, if so what did you do ? Also interested to hear from anyone who has any tips on how I can get my MBP running a little faster so I can rescue some data myself.
Very important as I have clients work on the machine that I hadn't backed up.
Kyle
