My Mac Mini had drive trouble some time ago and I ‘fixed’ it by booting off an external drive.
This has been most acceptable for the last 15 months or so, but recently, with a rejig of media stuff in the living room, I thought it would be nice to have the mini working properly off its own disk.
I found some money languishing in my PayPal account, did some interweb research on best drives and upgrade instructions and this morning set at it.
It’s an Hitachi 250GB drive (old was one 100GB) and the instructions were found here. Thanks Sole!
I was particularly impressed with the ease in which a disk can be cloned from one to another and then just boot from it. No hassle at all and all handled with Disk Utility.
I was also impressed with my Stanley putty knife and am proud to be the owner of such an essential Macintosh DIY tool
