My iMac is completely dead, I can’t even get to the disk utility screen, (I just have a picture of a folder after many minutes of listening to the heads crashing onto the disk).
If I buy an upgrade SSD kit from ifixit, where does the operating system boot from as I can no longer access the CMD R recovery drive? Could this be faulty also and what would be the procedure of repair for that?
Many thanks
Ollie.
iMac 27″, macOS 10.15
Restoring from a time machine backup usually works best, but the 2013 models also support internet recovery (shift-option-CMD-r to reinstall the original OS; option-CMD-r to install Catalina). https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204904
A third option would be to create a bootable USB installer with another Mac.
