Hello all, My iMac (2011 i think) seems to have all but died.
A few seconds after switching on, the screen goes white and striped, and it keeps rebooting itself.
Too old to risk money on a repair, I feel.
I would like to dispose of it, or give it away if someone can make use of it, but need to erase my personal data first.
It has a 2.5TB hard drive, plus a 500GB SSD.
Can I do this using target mode with a new Macbook air? (The thunderbolt connectors are different generations.)
Help much appreciated!
