Hi All,
I'd just like to ask a couple of questions about completely wiping my mac pro and reinstalling OSX so it's like brand new.
My details are -
Mac Pro - Late2007/early 2008 model
Current OS - OSX 10.7.5
Processor - 2 x 2.66ghz dual core intel xenon
RAM - 13GB
2 additional internal hard drives (system drive is the standard one that came with it)
I feel like my mac has become really sluggish over the last few months, it's never had a clean install since i purchased it.
My main use of the mac is for writing music, so i know it's going to take a long time to reinstall a lot of the software, thats ok.
Main questions really are, how do i best proceed now? What's the best way to wipe the drive and re install?
Any additional things i should look at or do?
Thanks for any help and advice,
Tom
