Hello and Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays,
I have a mid-2012 13” MBP running on 10.12.6 Sierra, which I’ve been trying to update to the latest OS for some time now. Any update that is newer than Sierra throws a “An error occurred while verifying firmware” error.
After removing the CD/DVD drive in order to fit the caddy/bracket, I have swapped the original HDD with Crucial’s BX300 SSD and tried to find an update, but on their official site there are currently no updates for that particular SSD (https://uk.crucial.com/support/ssd-support/bx300-support).
SPECS -
Model: MacBookPro9,2
Boot ROM Version: MBP91.00D3.B0B
SMC Version (system): 2.2f44
SSD: CT240BX300SSD1 240GB
I think the latest EFI is .B0C, however unable to install that either (requires OSX 10.9).
I’m not an Apple expert, but as far as I understand, it’s because High Sierra and above require the disk to be APFS? Is there a way to fix this?
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
