- PREPARING SSD DRIVE FOR MAC INSTALL UPGRADE
In the small business industry there are certain models of printers that work nicer with working from home and remote printing. So then the printer manufacturers realized two things – thing one selling printer cartridges was a good business to be in and thing two – if they made a printer that was indestructible we’d never buy another printer again. I finally had to get rid of it when plastic parts would break off but I must have had that printer for 15 years or more? The next version of that printer for home users, the HP Laserjet 4L would just run and run and run. Once upon a time I had an HP laserjet 4 printer that would run and run and run. overbearing, and nearly evil in their ways to hook us into their ink and cartridge programs. So we get told to buy a new printer to make our lives easier and then the printer manufacturers get downright … well how can we say this nicely…. Meanwhile every month we keep hitting printer issues ( for some printers, not all) triggered by Microsoft updates. We are supposedly in a paperless business world.
PREPARING SSD DRIVE FOR MAC INSTALL UPGRADE
I have read of issues with OWC discs not accepting the upgrade on certain machines, but the problem appears to affect a different brand disc (Aura), and a different year Mac Pro.Posted on October 19th, 2021 at 14:53 Susan Bradley Comment on the AskWoody Lounge
Didn't feel comfortable using the tool they describe above, but wonder if this is part of the issue.ģ) The new disc is an SSD from OWC. I have read that some users are getting a small download, rather than the full download file (see below). Don't fully understand this step, but since I was booted from my old drive, was it updating the right firmware?Ģ) It downloaded a very small file from the app store to start the process.

Same thing.ġ) When I first downloaded it asked to update my firmware.
Waited an hour, then deleted and tried a couple times. Grey bar is about 1/8 of the way through. The installer does see the new disk, but keeps freezing after installing 4 files (AppleDiagnostics.chunklist, Basesystem.chunklist,, and index.sproduct).

Wondering what the next best method for installing the OS on the new drive would be? Not sure if I can just download it, and install it on the SSD from my current startup, or if I can to create some kind of external bootable drive.
Also, since my current drive is running Yosemite, it seems that is what OS Recovery would install. I can connect to the wifi, but not to the internet through this manner, and I don't have easy access to the router or a wired connection. But I am in a building with a shared wifi, and apparrantly there are limitations to what type of wifi security works with internet recovery. Original plan was to use Internet recovery to load the system onto the new drive. My current drive is still running Yosemite, so was planning to do a clean install of High Sierra on the new drive, and then migrate my data from the existing drive to the new SSD. My existing startup drive is in bay 1, and the formatted but empty SSD is in bay 2. I added a new SSD drive to my mid-2010 Mac Pro, and want to do a clean install of latest OS, but keep hitting snags.
