I have a somewhat old but pretty capable Hackintosh, CoffeeLake CPU, plenty of RAM and disk etc. It's been running great for many years (I think I got it when CoffeeLake was new, so I guess it's about six years old now) but out of nowhere it shut itself down the other day and now when I try to start it up, it can't see either of its boot drives, and won't boot at all past the OpenCore startup screen. I'm not really sure what to do - I wasn't planning on replacing this machine quite yet (though perhaps it noticed me browsing Mac Studio pricing and got jealous?) What would you do in this situation?
I feel like my options are -
- Try to figure out what happened, and replace whatever component(s) may have gone bad
- Replace it with a Mac mini or Mac Studio (but this would also mean finding some kind of thunderbolt or usb-c enclosure for the four drives in the hackintosh)
