richardoxd Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 I tried to install macOS Catalina olarila. All the time I get this error: ,, Unable to write to the last block of the device (-69760) when I want to erase the ssd. I also tried to erase with the format APFS and ExFAT and I got the same error. I put the ssd to windows computer and convert to GTP with exFAT, nothing. I tried to format the SSD from the mac terminal and nothing again. I tried First Aid from Disk Utility and nothing again. What should I try to do? Error photos: https://imgur.com/a/wdRg65M   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I open the Catalina install and the black screen with white code text appear, I saw some ,, disk1 I/O error ( maybe this information can help, i put 2 photos in this link: https://imgur.com/a/mmTUAUe ). Or maybe I forgot to disable or enable something in BIOS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MACSOLDIERS Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 I went through this problem in my hackntosh, I solved it using an external program to erase the SSD, I used acronis true image 2017, choose the option to add a new disk, it erases everything first and very quickly, then it asks to format, choose the NTFS / GUI option, then install MAC OS and use the erase option in Disk Utility / APFS / GUI. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried right now this program. still nothing. maybe I did something wrong but I don't think so. Here are some pictures: https://imgur.com/a/BVnSMtq Meanwhile, I installed macOS Catalina on a usb drive stick. yeah.. works but very slow. Now my question is why the macOS drive utility can format a usb stick with apfs but an ssd can't format. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
