[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1528433, member: 38864"] The mid-2010 MacBook Pro came with Snow Leopard on a DVD. Reinstall Snow Leopard. You will obviously have to either reinstall your DVD drive (assuming you removed it to put in one of your SSDs) or purchase an external DVD drive. Then re-download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Once done, migrate your apps and data back from your backup. This is your BEST option, if not the only one. In fact, you should just remove those SSDs entirely and go back to the stock drive. You simply don't have enough space anyway, unless you plan to significantly trim the amount of data you are keeping on them. [/QUOTE]
