SATA drive not being used as of yet...Yes the Disk Utility said that this
hard drive health is good, nothing wrong...That I had checked prior to
reinstalling 10.10...But now it still will not boot this hard drive, why I
do not know, never have I had a problem like this before...
So I am at a lose as to what too do...I've spent to many hours trying, and
yet nothing...
