Dear List, You know that saying, If its not broken, Don’t fix it. Well, I didn’t listen. I was running Big Sur on a external SSD, while Monterey was installed on the internal spindle drive. So today I decided to upgrade the SSD from Big Sur to Monterey. The upgrade seemed to go OK, So since the SSD drive was named Big Sur, I renamed it to Monterey SSD, and I also renamed the data drive to Monterey SSD-Data. Guess what! Yes, the Mac will not boot the SSD. I have to remove it in order to boot into recovery, but soon as I plug it in, Recovery disk utility stops responding. So again I unplugged it and restarted the Mac booting with the internal spindle drive running Monterey, But finder stops responding when I plug in the SSD. So if I can’t rename or format the SSD, What do I do? Please give me some advice! Thanks, Rob
