[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1810655, member: 175845"] Add another, even though indirectly. My cousin bought over her 2008 MB that had died, deader than dead, but her backup dive was kaput and unreliable and as a consequence out of date. It looks like no repair will stick and is too unreliable to use. So I reformatted a spare I have to use as a backup and as a transfer drive to use with my old MBPro as a temporary measure until I can get her a replacement older Mac. (She really can't stand the recent OS X versions.) That almost worked until the drive quit communicating and not working properly. So, I shall carry on And see if I can't get her a working Mac to use. At least the original Apple/Fujitsu 120GB HDD was still operating that I removed to grab her current data. I may use it for a bit as a CCC backup drive, and it has sure done noble service and seems to be working well. - Patrick ====== [/QUOTE]
