Mac Pro restore hd
Having huge problems restoring the Hd on a Mac Pro.
Started by verifying disk. It basically stopped part way through and said I had to restore hd from backup (1 to time machine hd with 16 gb free out of 982 gb used)
Tried restore. It hummed align for a few hours then said it could not continue and to start again! This was after saying it was going to Tahoe over 500 hours to complete.
Tried again. After selecting source for backup, it basically did nothing for over an hour and never did retina a restroom point ( which had eventually happened the first time). Cut power. Goes to same point as before and does nothing (spinning color wheel only)
Reboot and try a verify disk on time machine hd. It has been stuck there for hours saying it will be clone in 36 minutes.
So here we sit with a machine seemingly lost in the twilight zone with no progress of any sort on the horizon
What suggestions might you have for this one?
Thanks
