[QUOTE="lclev, post: 1844796, member: 307555"] If you want to know if your Lacie clone is good you can try powering on your computer while holding down the Option key. Hopefully you will see your internal and Lacie drive listed and you can select the Lacie drive. If it boots and then offers to clone back to your internal drive that means it is working. Resetting the PRAM and SMC won’t hurt but I think your problems are more than what resetting will fix. I fear your graphics card has failed which is common with that model. IMO you might want to start looking for a new computer. Lisa [/QUOTE]
