Booting issue - 10 minute startup time

Hi - I'm a recent PC to Mac convert and am loving life. Even though I have BootCamp and Parallels installed, I don't find myself using Windows at all!
Anyway, on to the less fun stuff. My MBP 17 boots into OS X quickly enough, but the hard drive is going nuts for a LONG time after I'm actually into the GUI. And if I go ahead and start my usual trio of Entourage (the main reason I can stay out of Windows!), Thunderbird and Firefox, I'm looking at 10 minutes from power-up to everything being ready to roll. Obviously something is wrong. I have 2 gigs of RAM. It's not like I have a lot of junk installed either. I don't have any app set to auto-start (that I can think of).
Any ideas? Is there an app I can use to monitor all activity on boot up so that I can see what's going on and/or a boot optimization app?
Thanks!

i really notice no lag time, although i do admit that I don't actually time the process.
As I mentioned, I use Entourage, and Thunderbird/Firefox. Remember that Entourage runs on Rosetta, which is going to make the program run slower than univeral binary programs. The other programs above are universal binary to my recollection.
One suggestion that you should try, is to not have ANY of those programs start at logon, and if the system still lags, then I would back everything up and do a reinstall. Then you know that you are dealing with a stock OS install without anything 3rd party software that my be causing things to slow down. If you still have a problem, the unit needs to be checked.
Good luck...

  • Boot Camp vs. scheduled startup times

    We have a dual-use iMac lab that's alternately used for Mac and PC instruction via Boot Camp. The Macs are scheduled to shut down at a certain hour and then restart at 7 AM. We've noticed that when the computers are shut down either manually or automatically while in Windows (XP), they do not start up automatically in the morning. These are 2.66 GHz Intel iMacs running 10.5.7. They're running Faronics Deep Freeze, but it's not controlling any scheduling or maintenance periods.
    Thanks,
    Ric

    Here's the scoop on the lab with the problem, cross posted from Boot Camp > Firmware and Power Management
    I have an instructional lab of 30 20" imacs that are running dual-boot, 10.5 & XP SP3. They have bootpicker installed to simplify the selection of which OS to boot to and auto-select Windows at 60 sec. (This is for new computer users and English as a second language users that are not familiar with the dual-boot setups.)
    In both OS's we run deepfreeze to protect the configurations from change. I have set the Energy Saver settings in the Mac OS to start or wake at 7am weekdays. Deepfreeze for Windows is set to shut off the Macs at 10PM. This is also set by Deepfreeze in the Mac OS but since they primarily run Windows in this classroom the Mac's are shut down from the Windows side.
    After making the auto start setting and shutting them down from Windows once they will no longer auto start the next day or ever again after that. I have tried using pmset to remedy this and have tossed the plist for the settings numerous times. Same thing every time. One auto boot and then none after. I would use a script from ARD to wake them but they are not in the same subnet as my ARD setup and my network group will not configure our switching to allow for it.
    Does anyone know how to make the Macs boot consistently, automatically, every day I wish them to boot after being shut down from Windows by Deepfreeze.
    The Apple Experts I spoke to today said that at this point there was no way that he was aware of to make setting in the EFI bios or in the Windows or Mac OS’s to resolve this issue. He said in the next OS version there are more BootCamp options for Windows but that it’s all been hush hush and he’s not sure if that is something that may be available. He also suggested that a third party product might be used but couldn’t think of any. I requested that he send this to the engineers to see if there are any more option or add this as a wish item for the next OS or updates and he is going to do that.

  • 5-7 minute startup time

    Hi,
    I've purchased this 17 inch macbook pro last december, and Apple replaced my logic board recently. I've done a clean snow leopard install, and it takes 5-10 minutes to boot up (stuck on apple logo). Booting in safe mode takes the same amount, but after you restart from it the computer boots in 1 min. I've tried resetting pram, smc and all those things. Please help me!
    Thanks!

    By clean, do you mean erase?  If you do, it is possible they replaced the wrong part.  RAM frequently can fail and not be detected except in software symptoms.  Make sure you used the installer disc that shipped with the Mac to install 10.6.

  • Issue with decreasing startup time of Air Application(Please Help)

    If someone knew the answer to this it would really help me. I put a large directory into my source folder that was pulling up HTML files through a mx:html. I added a creationComplete function so a the user would fill out a registration form before they start using the application. When I run the application from Flex it runs fine but when I export the application and turn it into a .air file and install it on a computer, the application seems to be scanning the entire directory(the src folder) the application is in, including the large sub-directory housing the HTML files, before the application starts. I don't know if its the creationComplete fuction or something else, but my application did not do this before but know its doing it now. There is no need to scan the entire folder before the application starts. Does anyone know what function would be scanning the source folder before opening the application? Is it the creationComplete function? Do I have any other alternatives besides for creationComplete that will not scan the entire folder at application startup, or is there anyway to exclude a specific subdiretory (in the src folder) at startup so the a application will not scan the entire folder before opening, or should I put the creationComplete function in a separate directory.
    What i'm using:
    <mx:WindowedApplication xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute" xmlns="*"
        height="730" width="1257" title="Prototype" xmlns:comp="components.*"
        creationComplete="checkRegistrationWinInfo(), checkRegistrationInfo()">

    Post both these methods:
    checkRegistrationWinInfo(), checkRegistrationInfo()
    creationComplete itself does nothing with the system. It's an internal (Flex) thing.
    AFAIK, an air application doesn't "scan" anything when started.

  • Captive Network Assistant checks 249 different airport, hotel and other misc WiFi hotspots adding a good 3 minutes to my startup time.

    Hey there,
    During startup of my MacBook Pro, Captive Network Assistant checks 249 different airport, hotel and other misc. WiFi hotspots. Proabaly adding a good 3 minutes to my startup time. ***? This all started while I was on extended layover at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport.
    I thought Captive Network Assistant was an iOS thing. No iOS devices in my home or office. Here's a portion of the console log during startup.

    Looking at the times, I see this only takes a fraction of a second but my startup time is still much much longer than it ever was or should.
    Does anyone have any idea on how to get rid of this? I deleted the Captive Network Assistant.app from my computer but the checking continues. It seems to be a rarely mentioned issue doing a web search, and nothing like this, although  it's referred to in certain articles.
    Really weird.
    Gregg

    I'd take another look at your startup log.
    If you look closely, you'll see that all those log messages occurred in the space of 30 milliseconds - by comparison, a human blink takes about 150 milliseconds.
    So while I don't doubt you're seeing slow startup time, I don't think CaptiveNetworkSupport is the culprit, per se.
    Fortunately, since every startup event is timestamped, it should be easy enough to determine what task is taking the most time.
    As for CNS, it's not just an iOS thing - it's standard in Mac OS X, too. I'm also under the impression (but can't confirm) that it only checks the networks that you've previously connected to, so check System Preferences -> Network -> AirPort -> Advanced -> WiFi and delete any networks you no longer use or expect to connect to.

  • Startup time issue - T420s

    I have a T420s with i7 and stock intel ssd and recently my startup time has been awful. Despite using various startup optimizers and playing with msconfig, I found the problem but don't know how to fix it.
    When there is a CD in the optical drive (any cd) that startup time from power on (finger swipe) to desktop is 1 minute 47 seconds.
    But, without a CD in the drive, startup is consistently 51 seconds or better.
    Is this a normal delay? I tried to change the boot order in bios to only boot from the SSD (and not the optical drive) but can't figure this out. In bios it is already set to quick boot. Then I tried pressing f12 on startup but it seems to display the list of available boot drives without a way to change them. How do I set my laptop to only look to boot from the SSD?
    Thank you.

    I found the right setting and excluded all other drives from the boot priority list except for my intel ssd, BUT it still spins up the optical drive upon power up and takes forever to boot into windows. Is there anything more I need to do so that it only boots from my ssd?
    You can take out the CD?
    I haven't used a CDROM in ages....except to burn an image of my recovery discs....all other CD I just create an ISO out of it and then mount these images as an when I need. MagicISO at http://www.magiciso.com/tutorials/miso-magicdisc-overview.htm is a free program you can try using.
    Regards your booting problem, I couldn't figure out why it is doing that, except that you have a bad CD disc and the CDROM drive is having a hard time to read it, hence it keeps spinning and spinning and wasting the OS time to intrepret what device is that. However, when you changed the Bios setting, it shouldnt happen like that. A bad CD, you will hear the noise, like suddenly it will spend faster, then slow down, then repeat and there will be a series of clicking sound as the actuactor arm tries to read the media and the laser try to focus.
    Maybe you can try to rank them by priority 1) SSD 2) HDD 3) CDROM etc instead of pressing x to remove the CDROM Drive from the list. Also, there is 2 bootup list, one with AC and one with battery, so you need to change the list appropriately. My bad, i mean the normal boot list and the network boot list....

  • Boot issues

    When I boot my computer (MacBook Pro, 15", Early 2010, 4GB RAM, 320GB HD, 2.4GHz Intel Core i5), it does nothing for quite awhile, and eventually gives me the folder with the question mark on it, signifying it can't find a startup volume. I think I know why, but this has not helped me fix the problem.
    I used Disk Utility to partition the internal hard drive so I could install Linux (Ubuntu 10.10) and dual-boot. I used Linux to reformat the partition and used one of the 134MB spaces between partitions (the one at the end of the drive) as Swap space for Linux. I installed Ubuntu, and it worked fine. I could use the built in boot manager (holing down the option key at startup) to boot into either operating system.
    That was last night. This afternoon, I booted up the computer, and it gave me the flashing question mark folder and wouldn't boot. I connected it to my iMac (20", Early 2009, 2GB RAM, 320GB HD, 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo) via a FireWire 800 cable and started the laptop up in Target Disk Mode. I started my iMac up holding down the option key to get it to look for the (possibly) bootable hard drive of the laptop. It did not find it, but displayed only the boot volumes normally available to it (Mac OS X 10.6.7, Windows 7 Ultimate, Mac OS X 10.5.8). I then shut down the laptop and proceeded to start it back up. Miraculously, it booted of its own accord into Mac OS X (10.6.7). I later booted the machine into Linux and began dinking around with some settings to get the illuminated keyboard to work. I did not entirely succeed, but the laptop was still working fine. I shut the clamshell to put it to sleep (while in Linux), and about an hour later, upon opening the clamshell, all I got was a black screen and the mouse pointer (as if it was stuck trying to get me to enter a password to unlock the screen). On rare occasions, this happens to me under Mac OS X as well, and I have usually been able to resolve it by shutting and opening the clamshell. After waiting a few minutes, I tried this, and when it failed, I decided to force shut down the machine, as I have had to do sometimes when this has happened under Mac OS X. Upon restarting the computer, I got the flashing question mark once again. I tried holding down the option key on startup, but only got a mouse pointer against a blank grey screen (like the boot loader screen, but without any icons). I tried zapping the PRAM, starting up in Safe Mode, starting in Verbose mode, holding down the x key, then Command-Option-O-F (then realized that wouldn't work since Apple doesn't use Open Firmware anymore), and also tried Command-Option-V-R, but that also appeared to do nothing. I just got the question mark folder each time (except for resetting the PRAM: that worked, but then I got the question mark folder).
    I repeated the same steps as before (Target Disk Mode, etc) to see if they would miraculously fix the problem a second time (I still don't know how they did the first time), but to no avail. I fully booted my iMac with the laptop connected as a FireWire disk to attempt to use Disk Utility on it. Disk Utility did not recognize the drive. I checked System Profiler. It recognized that there was a Target Disk device attached to my iMac, but it did not list any hard drives under it. I proceeded to boot my laptop from its install DVD, which worked. However, Disk Utility on the pseudo-OS that is on the install DVD failed to recognize the internal hard drive. I checked under the Serial-ATA section of System Profiler. It showed two connections, one for the DVD drive, and I presume the other for the hard drive, but the hard drive one showed nothing connected to it. It simply listed a few specs on the SATA port.
    I decided to boot my laptop from my iMac's internal drive. I reversed the roles of the machines, my iMac now being in Target Disk Mode, and the laptop trying to boot from its hard drive. I held down the option key at startup so I could choose what to boot from. I choose Mac OS X 10.6.7, and the machine started to boot. Just before it should have gotten to the brief blue screen before the login screen, it had a kernel panic, and the grey came down the screen and told me to restart the computer. I did, tried again, got the same kernel panic, so I decided to try Windows 7. When I selected Windows from the boot manager, it seemed to try to start up in Mac OS X (10.6.7, because 10.5.8 wasn't connected), but never got past the grey Apple icon. After a while, it started occasionally flashing a circle with a line through it, and sometimes the question mark folder, but always switched back to the Apple icon quickly. After at least 10 minutes, I decided to shut down the computer. I then tried booting Mac OS X 10.6.7 in Safe Mode. After showing the progress bar (it only got about half completed before it vanished, but it took a long time to get halfway) for awhile, it eventually successfully booted to the login screen. I signed in, and opened Disk Utility. Nothing. I checked System Profiler and got the same result I had from the install DVD. I shut down the computer, and tried to boot it normally one last time. Nothing.
    Does anyone have a clue what's going on? I can understand why the computer would be having boot issues, with my shaky installation of Linux, and all, but I can't understand why nothing will recognize that the computer's internal hard drive exists.
    I do have AppleCare for the laptop, unless I've voided the warranty by installing Linux. Should I send the computer in? (I'm over 250 miles from the nearest Apple Store). Is there anything I could do by opening up the computer (I know that would void the warranty if I haven't already). I do have a backup of most of the data, but the backup excludes some video files because of their size. Luckily, I do still have them on MiniDV tape if I have to reimport them.
    I feel like I've tried everything, but I wouldn't be surprised if I've missed something obvious…
    Thanks in advance for any ideas, suggestions or answers!

    Update 2: That successful boot seems to have been one of about four flukes. For some strange reason, my computer will successfully boot into Mac OS X and Ubuntu, but only on rare occasions. There seems to be no pattern, but every once in a while, the computer will decide to recognize it has a hard drive.
    Any thoughts?

  • IMac  with SSD and Hard drive very slow startup time

    I have a new mid 2011 iMac with a 250gb SSD drive and a 2TB drive. All are from Apple as BTO options. When I first used the iMac my typical startup time from the hardware check chime to desktop was typically 12 seconds. Something, somehow has been changed because now it takes over one minute to boot up from the SSD. After the chime I hear the fans running and also the 2tb drive.  After about 20 seconds I hear the hard drive spin down and then after another 20 seconds it starts up again. Once it starts up the boot up sequences contiunes and returns to the desktop. After this the iMac perfprms as normal. I have tried running disk utility from the recovery partition. I have also reinstalled Lion as well from the recovery partition and neither of these change the outcome.
    When I first got the iMac I used time machine to restore from a previous machine into the 2tb partition and then went into advanced options in System preferences>Users&Groups to point to my home folder on the 2Tb drive rather than the default one on the SSD. That was working fine until I discovered software problems with both Preview and Textedit where they would not start up with this arangement. I then repointed my home folder to the default one on the SSD which cured this issue with these programmes leaving my data remaining on the 2Tb drive. Since doing this I have had the one minute boot up problem.
    Can anyone offer any advice as to how I may overcome this problem and get my iMac back to starting up in twelve seconds from the SSD as it did before.  Any help would be appreciated on this topic.
    Thanks.

    Where do you maintain your Home folder - on the SSD or on the HDD?
    If you want to do a clean install (from scratch) then do the following:
    Install or Reinstall Lion from Scratch
    If possible backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
    Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
    Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Install button.
    Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.
    Before you go to the extreme of the above would you do this:
    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu.  Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order.  If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar.  Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
    Just in case your system slowness is due to something eating up CPU time. Oh, and if your system is brand new check the upper right corner of the menubar for a "dot" inside the Spotlight glass. This means Spotlight is indexing the drive. Until it finishes your system will be quite sluggish.

  • Weblogic 7.0 startup time is very bad

    We just upgraded to weblogic 7.0, jdk1.3.1_03 and are on solaris 8. We find that
    the startup time is horribly slow and very pathetic. Talked to support, not much
    of help there except that they accepted the fact. Removed UDDI, webservices.jar.
    Any startup performance improvements from anyone out here? The startup time sucks
    a lot and the support wants us to wait till SP1 which would eat away a lot of
    developer time waiting for the server to start. Does anyone else have a problem
    regarding the same? In 5.1 the whole application used to start up like in 2 minutes,
    now we see that it takes about 8-10 minutes which is totally unacceptable.
    Any help would be appreciated as this is wasting a lot of our time out here. Is
    migrating to weblogic 7.0 worth it given its performance compared to 5.1?
    Shiva.

    I have one domain running. In development mode we have only one server.
    The development server without anything deployed in it alone takes more
    than 2 minutes to startup. Below is the complete dump of the server when
    there is nothing deployed in it.
    Time stamp here is 10:39:29.

  • How to fix slow startup times on a macbook air

    Before upgrading to Moutain Lion my MacBook Air booted up to the desktop in less than 30 seconds. Now with Mountain Lion it takes 1 minute and 30 seconds to get to the desktop. What can I do to get the startup time back to the way it was before upgrading?

    I had already checked and tried numerous "google" searches without any successbefore coming here. If you can't give a response without being sarcastic then don't bother replying.
    Wow! Are you thin-skinned. My comment wasn't, as you say, sarcastic. I never assume anything not explicitly stated or implied. If you've visited these forums for any length of time, you'd know how many don't do the obvious things, but expect responders to be clairvoyant. If none of those hits solved your issue, I'm out of ideas, since the global and app-specific defaults changes work here. Good luck and have a happy holiday weekend (US-only).

  • NCS Startup Times

    We have just migrated from WCS to NCS and are running the NCS server on a vm.  We used the small appliance ova for deploying the NCS server, as we have less than 100 access points.  Has anyone else noticed that NCS takes forever to start?  I ran into an issue trying to upload an autocad file for a new map and it seemed to crash NPS.  When doing an NCS Stop and NCS Start, the server has been sitting there for over 15 minutes starting... How long should it take to start the NCS services?

    I am noticing the same thing .... extremely slow startup times but I have one worse. I just installed it and I can't even seem to reach it on the network. What VM network adaptor did you select? WIth the template I think it defaulted to something like r1000? I am on the network team not the VM team so I am trying to figure it out and when it take forever to boot each time it makes it that much worse. I assumed go VM would be a good idea but this experience isn't starting out too well.

  • Slow system and application startup times

    Hi,
    I've got a 17" Macook Pro (Early 2011) 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7 - ever since I bought it I feel like it runs a little slow.
    I've been a long-time mac used but I feel a little disappointed with this machine.
    e.g.: Startup time takes around 4 minutes.
    Applications take around 10 seconds to start.
    Chrome sometimes takes 5-10 seconds to start, about the same to quit.
    My Xbench scores fluctuate wildly - best I've ever got is 220, worst is 18. 160 is about the average.
    http://db.xbench.com/merge.xhtml?doc2=526647
    http://db.xbench.com/merge.xhtml?doc2=537725
    http://db.xbench.com/merge.xhtml?doc2=544252
    I feel that tried everything including:
    - Creating a new user
    - Repairing disk permissions
    - DIsk verify and repair
    - Removing all startup items
    - Installing extra ram (currently at 8GB)
    It runs well most of the time but frustratingly slow sometimes and there doesn't seem to be any anomalous activity in activity monitor. I feel that it could be the hard disk, but don't know (I always have 250-350gb free).
    Any help appreciated!

    Thanks for the link. I've never seen that page before but I have done everything in that list.
    It's not a spinning beachball issue - the system doesn't lock-up often it just takes a **** long time to do some things. I didn't really realise it as a problem until I started using other people's older/lower spec'ed macs and noticed that they run FASTER than mine.

    Disk https://skitch.com/e-hellodaniel/83pxg/activity-monitor
    Even using Skitch to take those screenshots took ages.
    It's almost like the disk or CPU is throttled back or bottlenecked, and always has been...

  • Safe boot issues tried everything

    Howdy From NZ
    I have a MBP with a bad case of safe Boot Issues
    Things I have tried:
    Disk Repair
    Checked S.M.A.R.T status of HDD under linux and run a full surface scan to check HDD is fine
    Replaced SATA Cable
    Reloaded OSX (upto yosimite)
    tried another hdd just in case
    replaced top panel (thought maybe it was holding down the shift button)
    and a few others I cannot remember at the moment
    i'm Thinkin' it's motherboard related but would like a second opinion from the forum guru's
    Also I've taken it to the closest apple authorised repair store, and they said it was the HDD, but clearly it isnt as I have replaced it with a brand new one and the sata cable
    interestingly enough, If i 6 second death it, upon reboot it works fine, but if i restart normally it hits this problem, I'm thinking maybe its doing some sort of start up check thats causing it?, it seems to work fine if you boot with verbose mode every time without fail, so is verbose mode disabling something upon startup?
    I run a repair store here, but im not apple authorized, but as stated before, have gotten further than the people that are.... any help will be greatly appreciated

    Good Timing,
    I was heading to Christchurch (the only town in the south island with an "apple genius store")
    they told me it was the HDD again, even after telling them I have put a new HDD in and also changed the Sata cable!!!
    Clearly this isn't going anywhere fast, and although I appreciate the help you have given me, I'm going to nut this one out by myself.
    ***update***
    I borrowed a mates mac that was the exact same model and swapped the Motherboards over, worked straight from the get-go
    Thank for the help, it was appreciated in making me think I'm not crazy.

  • Mac Pro Boot Issue

    Mac Pro - "Quad", 2 X 2.66Ghz; 5GB RAM; OS X 10.5.6
    Mac Pro will not boot. It powers up to the grey Apple logo screen. The progress circle spins for about 3 seconds, then powers itself off.
    This past week I came back from two weeks off. The first morning back I noticed my Mac was sluggish at times and freezing for a few seconds here and there. When Time Machine backups would kick in, the whole system would be unresponsive for minutes at a time. After turning off all other equipment in my office, I could detect a tell-tale "click click, spin" type noise coming from one of my two internal drives (one for OS and a second for backups).
    I tracked the noise to the boot drive and guessing it was about to go out, I ordered a replacement Samsung Spinpoint 750GB. Good thing, because the next day when I came in to work my machine was having worse problems. IF it would boot, it would hang after a few minutes of use. If it would not boot, it would power up to the grey Apple logo, the progress circle would spin a few seconds, the power itself off.
    I waited another day and the new drive arrived. I pulled the old OS drive, installed the new one, then dumped our standardized clone image on the drive (using CCC). After the clone was complete, I booted up on the drive, tested it out for a couple of hours and verified that it was working as expected. Next I copied data over to my drive from my backup drive. Everything looked fine.
    Three days later, I come in to find my Mac will no longer boot. Grey Apple logo, spinning, etc.. I power off and boot from my external diagnostic drive (OS X 10.5.5). It will not boot. I remove both internal drives and try another boot from the external diagnostic drive. It boots up fine. Shutdown. Remove the backup drive (drive bay 2) and try to reboot from the diag drive once again. It will not boot. Remove the OS drive (drive bay 1) and it boots to the diagnostic drive fine (note: no internal drives are installed at this point). Shutdown. Install the OS drive into drive bay 2 and it then boots to the diagnostic drive just fine.
    So now I have booted to my external diag drive and can see that the OS drive is showing on the Desktop; however a pop-up error stating there is a problem has appeared. I try to verify the OS drive using Disk Utility and it stops about 2 seconds into the process with a "Filesystem verify or repair failed" error. The OS drive will then not mount.
    I restart booting back to the external diag drive. The OS drive shows up on the Desktop with the same pop-up error message as before.
    I run Tech Tool Pro from the diag drive and it comes back with a File Structure error of "Type List Offset Is Invalid" and "No method for Tech Tool Pro to repair a corrupt file". I have a surface scan and drive hardware test running now, but on a 750GB it will be a WHILE.
    So here is my predicament... I can understand my original OS drive having problems. It was at least 3 yrs old and has been run quite hard. But what are the odds that I would replace it with a brand new drive running a verified to be good cloned disk image AND have almost the exact same boot issues on the new drive that I had on the old one?
    I have taken my original OS drive and hooked it up to external cases and sata-to-usb adapters to make sure that it was actually dead and it is. It will not spin up properly and makes lots of clicking noises. However, having a similar boot issue with a brand new drive has me worried something may be wrong with the Mac Pro hardware also. The new OS drive ran fine for a few days and only had these problems today.
    Any guesses?

    Here is my own "cookie cutter" template to this type of problem.
    Insure your UPS is working properly and that you have 1300VA to start with.
    Run Apple Hardware Test of course.
    CCC has been updated so make sure latest (it auto checks probably already).
    Do you have Windows? run diagnostics from there, much better.
    I settled on WD drives and use WD Diagnostic and has saved a drive.
    Avoid Barracudas, seems even their 1TB is also suffering early failures (the 1.5TB was suffering from firmware problem).
    Check for reviews and drive upgrade DB on AccelerateYourMac.

    I know the F1 got a lot of early praise but they aren't compatible with Apple Pro RAID card and may have other issues.
    If you want a fast low-cost drive, WD Cavair 640GB $69.

    I have seen more than a couple of similar stories from people going away for 1-2 weeks and coming home to system that won't work properly. Hopefully people shutdown and unplug, or shutdown and have UPS, but it is strange to say the least.
    Resetting SMC is a good idea but best done with 2008 model by leaving it unplugged for a full night 8-12 hrs. and not just 5 minutes. contrary to Apple tech article. For yours, there is a small physical button accessed by pulling drive tray #4 (easier to see if it is on its side and you have flashlight!)
