    MP 1,1-5,1 Boot SSD periodically unmounting/remounting?

    The last two mornings, I've come into the office to find a MacOS notification admonishing me to properly eject my boot disk <Mac_SSD> before removing it. If seems, then, that for some unexplained reason, my boot SSD appears to be un-mounting itself in the middle of the night and then remounting...

    Mid-2010 MBP Hard drive cable failure

    Hey everyone, I recently started refurbing on my old 2010 MBP and have run in to some problems. First problem that I am having is the battery was bulging and pressing the trackpad up so that it would no longer click, but I have resolved that by simply removing the battery for now, and I intend...

    Mid-2010 iMac CPU replacement

    It's alive! Swapped out the core i3-540 for an i5-680 using the guide from iFixit. According to a few benchmarks I found online, the i5 scores anywhere from 17% to 30% higher. By the seat of the pants, it feels a bit zippier. My Windows 10 virtual machine seems to boot a little faster. Overall...

    Issue with iMac SSD upgrade

    I recently upgraded my mid-2010 27" iMac with a new Samsung 850-Evo SSD and am running into a weird problem. The install was easy with the adapter I used from OWC with the thermal sensor, nothing out of the ordinary occurred, no breaks, no broken display cable. SMC and PRAM all reset. When I...

    Random restarts (Kernel Panic)

    Hi! I'm starting to get frustrated with these random restarts my MBP 15" (mid 2010) does. I am on Yosemite, have installed an SSD a few years back, and upgraded my rams from 4 to 8 about a year ago. I've had these random restarts for some months now. As I've read it could be a software that...
