i have macbook pro 7,1 (mid 2010). internal hard disk not functioning properly. system started acting strange , running slow , after diagnostics appears me hard disk... tried reinstall. nope --- not hard disk. have tested drive on macbook pro (works fine). have tried different known working drives , ssd's in internal drive bay. fail in same same manner: i/o error when trying partition drive , ready re-install. not think partitioning actual problem, first time "bad drive" symptom appears.
note, can reinstall , boot system using sd card or external usb drive (partitions without issues , installs & runs osx fine). cannot partition drive place in internal drive bay. can place pre-partitioned & pre-installed drive in bay, said, system runs erratic , slow on internal drive.
have not tried hard disk in optical bay. may try in future see if can make use out of macbook pro.
have no idea why happening.. maybe bad sata controller? bad cable? bad circuit somewhere? ask because want know if known issue or problem other users have seen.
so, has seen problem before?
thanks,
