Perhaps there may still be hope... but at what cost... ? 🤔
So I hooked my 2011 Quad Core i7 iMac up again last weekend and discovered that the hard drive is toast and beyond repair.Took two days to even figure out what the problem was after I was able to get into Recovery HD mode, erase the hard drive, download Mac OS Lion from an old link Apple embedded in the system to access a server they set up to download the operating system installer as a worst-case-scenario contingency some 15 years ago (which, to their credit, still exists and functions), wait over 6 hours for the download, re-install, set up the system "for the first time" all over again, re-install my EyeTV 3.0 software, track down the serial number, hook up my external hard drive, copy over 100GB worth of content, go through each file and begin editing and exporting them... only for the system to crash 97% into the first file.
I received a prompt that the hard drive was improperly ejected. Only, it wasn't the external drive -- it was the internal drive. That was when I realized my computer wasn't recognizing ANY drive for files OR to run the operating system.
Needless to say, my computer is now running entirely off a 32gb external USB thumb stick from the late 2000s. I'd like to assume it is USB 2.0, but it may be USB 1.0 for all I know. And I'm trying to export and convert old files off my external hard drive on to a 128GB 3.X USB thumb drive which, quite frankly, is more powerful than the computer needs as it can only export at USB 2 speeds.
So now the waiting game begins to see how much I can convert before the next crash... Receive SMS online on sms24.me
