Oh...I see. Thanks. Once I get the cable, I'll post back and let you know if I could boot via the clone.

Earlier in this thread, I asked if I could make another clone from the one that won't boot. Thoughts?

I thought so too. That's why I consulted Apple re options.

Yes, you can make a copy from the copy.

That may be my only out. Tried the USB 2 cable, however, drive did not boot. Thanks again for your help. Appreciate it.

Did it act any differently?
