Chosen Solution
Hello everyone, I want to bring to new life my old iMac mid 2010 changing the HHD with a SSD. But, because is not my main computer I didn’t want to spend a lot. So I bought a Drevo X1 SSD, I put it inside the iMac, connected the SATA cables and I fixed it with industrial velcro. I also short the thermal sensor out. The problem comes when I try to install High Sierra. Whether in recovery mode or using a flash bootable USB drive it does not work: in the first case after the “world logo” the iMac hangs at the apple logo screen; in the second case after entering in the boot screen (pressing the Alt key) e clinking on my bootable usb drive the iMac hangs again and a completely white screen appears. What should I do? ( I have already reset the NVRAM) Thanks a lot
Your machine has an SATA II (3.0) Gb/s. This drive is SATA III (6.0 Gb/s). You need to find out if it is backward compatible.
