Hi!
I have a problem with my MBP mid 2012.
A few weeks ago it suddenly extremely slowed down.
It was so slow i couldn't even perform Etrecheck.
I decided to wipe the drive and re-install os.
But the install took forever to finish. I've tried a couple of times and once even left it for 5 hours, but the install still wouldn't finish.
For a while I thought it was a drive issue, but I checked it on my PC and everything seemed to be working perfectly.
I also performed Apple hardware test and it showed no problems.
So my best guess is that the drive to motherboard cable is broken? Even though my Mac can see the drive.
Thanks for any answer!
My specs:
MBP mid 2012
128 gb Plextor M6S SSD (SATA 3)
4 GB factory RAM
PS. I've also booted ChromeOS via USB flash drive and it worked, though i couldn't install the system on my ssd.
