Problems formatting new harddrive in Macbook Pro
Hi,
My internal harddrive in my MacBook Pro mid 2012 broke down. So I have installed a new harddrive a Seagate Hybrid Drives ST1000LM014 1TB which a according to IFIXIT.com shoud be compatible.
I have then started up the Macbook from the Apple server and gone in to Disk Utillity to format the harddrive. The harddrive is visible and I then go in partition, choose 1 partition, Mac OS X (journaled) + GUID. But while doing the partition I get the error message that formatting file system failed.
I have tried different options in Disk Utillity and I'm able to format the disk using FAT or ExFat. But that doesn't help me to use the harddrive in my mac.
Does anybody have any ideas about what to do? And does it seem like a problem with the functionality of the harddrive?
Thanks
MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2012), OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)
