Hi Guys,

Well, very interesting when I posted almost 2 months ago about my Early 2011 not starting, everyone was thinking that Radeaongate. I pulled it out today just for the hell of it and turned on no problem. I think the HD is dying and that's the problem.

I ran a disk test and got this below. I do to think this is normal.

So, my options are to install a new HD and battery and keep it, or sell it? it is a late 2011 with the I7 Core 2.2 and the Radeon graphics. I forget what one. I like the screen on this a lot, but is it worth fixing up? What Ssd is easy and not expensive to install? I don't think it's too hard to do either.

Thanks,
Tommy
