Use your internal drive as "the source". Mac OS extended with journaling enabled (if you're using High Sierra or earlier) APFS (if you're using Catalina or Mojave) Put the SSD into the enclosure (for now).Ĥ. This time they did it for freeĬCC is FREE to download and use for 30 days - this won't cost you anything.ģ. It turned out that somehow the RAM chips popped loose, so the repair shop put them back in for me. He still charged me a lot to replace thatĪnother time it would beep a few times on bootup and get stuck there.

The issues I've had over the years with my MBP is that on two occasions the hard drive cable died, and when that happened the bootup screen showed me a "no entry" sign. I have the equivalent feature with Sidecar with Duet Display, and Sidecar doesn't even work with our 2012 MBP anyways You still can use 32 bit apps, and I have no use for any of Catalina's features.

Years ago I went with this suggestion I saw online (and I paid someone to do it because I've never tinkered inside a computer much), to keep things cheap and maximize storage:ġ.
