I have a dying MBP due to the Radeongate issue. I just built myself a new PC. It is Intel based. Can I remove the SSD from my MBP and install it into an SSD bay on my PC and then boot into OS X?

Thanks!

  • You can format the drive and use it. You won't be able to boot into OS X on anything except Apple hardware.

No. OS X requires Apple hardware. You could look at running a hackintosh, though the legality is dubious and it'll be a lot more work than simply putting the SSD into a PC, if it's possible at all on your new hardware.

No you can't do it since hardware structure of Mac is different of that of PC. You can format it to FAT/NTFS and use it on PC. But formatting will erase all content on it. Best is to make its backup, format and use for PC.
