Hi,
I read articles and watches tutorials on swapping out the HD for a SSD in an I Mac 27' mid 2010. One of the articles used a Samsung 850 EVO 1TB. So I purchased SSD and an OWC thermostat and completed the installation. I had decided to use Time Machine to reboot. However - nothing happened. I then reinstalled the HD and tried cloning the SSD. this time following message appeared.
"The disk you installed was not readable by this computer"
So my question,
- Do I have a duff SSD?
- Is this SSD incompatible for this machine?
- Does the SSD need to be formated in any way?
Looking forward to clarification.
Thanks and Best Regard
Ferdinand.
