Installed a used Kington SSD in a 24” iMac with 3.06 GHz Core Duo and maxed out RAM.
Installation went fine, however after restarting the system the screen goes white, on booting from recovery partition from USB drive it appears that the SSD becomes unintalizd. After formatting it again and installing El Capitan still again it boots on the software but gives the same problem on restart.
Tried several times but the SSD becomes uninitialized every time upon every restart.
Is the blank screen due the SSD or the SATA cable?
Pls help!!!
