[QUOTE="xhomme, post: 1577371, member: 285184"] Hello, I have a mid 2010 macbook pro. Yesterday i added Samsung 830 256GB SSD, placed in the optical bay (instead of the dvd). The original hdd stayed in place. The first time I started installing Mavericks on it (from the original hdd) however my computer suddenly shut down during the process. I, then, created a bootable SD install, removed the hdd and installed the system. Used it for a couple of hours, everything was ok. I reconnected the hdd, after about 15 minutes (mavericks booted from ssd) it shuts down suddenly/ I disconnected the SSD and booted up the system from the original hdd and it seems to be working fine. In other words- when both ssd and hdd are connected the machine suddenly shuts down. When the system is booted from either of them and the other one disconected they seem to be working fine. Any thoughts on how to resolve this situation please? I'd like to keep using SSD as a bootable system but keep the hdd inside as an additional storage. thanks [/QUOTE]
