[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1041656, member: 46727"] If the drive will not boot, it has a problem and should be replaced. In order to extract data from the drive, you can remove it and place it in an external carrier or use an adapter to attach it to a working Mac. Use the working Mac to copy the data from the drive. Of course that depends on whether or not the drive is working good enough so that data can be copied from it. Another way is to hook your Mac to another Mac via Target Disk Mode. That would be hooking them together via a firewire cable - assuming both machines have FW ports. The good Mac can then be used to access the bad HD (maybe). And then there is software.
