Hi there,
I have Mac Mini Late 2012 Server with dual drives - one SSD (Samsung Evo 850) for system and apps, and the other is the original 1 TB HDD from Apple. Now I wanted to replace the HDD for new WD Red (that is for NAS - I wanted some drive, that is suitable to run 24/7). But when I replaced the Apple HDD for WD HDD, it doesn't show up in Disk Utility nor the Finder. I can hear it running, I can hear the clicking sound, when it disconects at the end (when I Shut Down the Mac). It is working when attached as external drive. The only problem is, that I can't mount it as the second internal drive (the SSD with system is the same). And when I plug the original Apple HDD back, it works again like a charm, so there is no issue with cables etc. Tried it several times. Tried to run Disk Utility from Recovery Mode, but to no avail.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
