Hallo habe einen i Mac von 2011 und dort war die HDD ausgebaut und eine SSD eingebaut. Habe jetzt alles soweit das ein Betriebssystem drauf ist und im Bootmenü erkannt wird. Er fährt aber nicht hoch. Apple Hardware Test sagt Temperatur Sensor Festplatte. Welches Kabel brauche ich da und haben sie ein solches?

MFG

Andreas
