[QUOTE="lclev, post: 1853731, member: 307555"] So I am in the processing of reinstalling Catalina after erasing everything. What is weird is I had to do the reinstall on the Data segment(?) - not sure what to call it as it is not an actual partition. The Macintosh HD container had an error and Catalina would not install. So instead of taking the easy way out, I installed it on the Macintosh HD-Data container. I am not sure what the issue is and at this point I don't care, but I do want to check out what the 28GB is that is on the Macintosh-HD container. Hopefully that will happen. Just FYI - I did try to erase the Apple SSD using the unhide feature and it would not erase it giving an error. Never could find what the error meant as the number did not produce any search information - imagine that! So regardless how this wraps up it is going to FedEx today. Apple support ordered a new 2020 that is due in by July 2-7. If it so much as hiccups I will take it as a sign that I need to send it back and wait for the new ARM MBP's to come out. I have been vacillating anyway as I do not want to spend all this money just to find out it will be obsolete in a couple of years. It is a dilemma. Lisa [/QUOTE]
