[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1590551, member: 46727"] I agree with bobtomay. I had the same symptom on my older iMac (2011 21.5") and it turned out to be a defective hard drive. The iMacs from that era used Seagate drives which were failing at a higher than normal rate. When Apple replaced mine, they replaced it with a Western Digital model. And, depending on which Apple store you take it to, it won't take long to replace the drive. They replaced mine the same day. [/QUOTE]
