How do I re-enable an internal HDD for formatting and data deletion on iMac? Hi, I did this procedure successfully on my iMac late 2014 as the HDD was too slow and subsequently I booted from a fast external SSD and all was well until now when I want to trade in the old iMac but cannot access the 'removed' internal HDD in order to format it and delete my data. Does anyone know what needs to be typed into terminal in order to reverse what I have previously done? Thanks in advance! [Re-Titled by Moderator]
