MP 6,1 MP6,1 Hardware Diagnostic Tool

[vett93]

Can someone point me to where I can find a low-level hardware diagnostic tool for MP6,1? I was told that it was shared in this forum but I cannot find it. My Mac Pro randomly ejects USB devices (drives, webcam, mic, etc.). I have used the Apple Diagnostics and it shows everything is fine. I was told that there is a more in-depth diagnostic tool.

It looks like you need Apple Service Diagnostics 3S159. If you find it somewhere to download let us know.

You can find it easily on Internet using Google.
You'll be able to download 4 files (ASD_3S159.001.dmg / ASD_3S159.002.dmg / ASD_3S159.003.dmg / ASD_3S159.004.dmg).
Personally, I used this command to convert these 4 files in a unique disk image file :

hdiutil convert ASD_3S159.001.dmg -format UDRO -o ASD_3S159.dmg

The more complex part will be to install Apple Service Diagnostic on a USB disk (I used a Sandisk 32 GB USB 3.0 flash drive), you can find explanations in the attached file.
I did it a long time ago, and if I remember I had to boot my MacPro on a very old system (OS X 10.9 ?) in order to do it.
