mid-2009 SSD upgrade "Searching for Disks"
I have a 2009 macbook pro 15" 2.53ghz running 10.9.1. My 320 HD was dying so I bought the OWC Mercury Electra 240GB SSD to replace it. I installed the new SSD and went to fire it up. It started up and got to the utilities menu. I backed up my computer to an external HD yesterday, so I selected "restore from a time machine backup." That was fine, I found my backup from yesterday, but then the next screen says "select destination disk to install OS X" and it just says "searching for disks" forever as in it doesn't recognize the new HD. What gives? It's listed everywhere as being compatible with my computer.
Any advice is appreciated. 4->8GB RAM upgrade after I get this sorted out.
MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)
