Hello, I botched a bootcamp install and had my hard drive replaced. The shop that replaced the hard drive said that they could not fix what was wrong. I am certain that there is a way to fix this.
I currently have the drive set up in an external case.
The drive actually thinks its two drives, not 2 partitioned spaces in one drive, but two physically separate drives. Here is what "diskutil list" brings up. The external drive is a three TB drive with identifier of disk1 and disk2.
/dev/disk0
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
0: GUID_partition_scheme *751.3 GB disk0
1: EFI EFI 209.7 MB disk0s1
2: Apple_HFS Macintosh HD 600.0 GB disk0s2
3: Apple_Boot Recovery HD 650.0 MB disk0s3
4: Microsoft Basic Data BOOTCAMP 150.4 GB disk0s4
/dev/disk1
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
0: GUID_partition_scheme *2.2 TB disk1
1: EFI EFI 209.7 MB disk1s1
/dev/disk2
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
0: GUID_partition_scheme *801.6 GB disk2
1: EFI EFI 209.7 MB disk2s1
Similarly on a PC it also sees the drive as two drives.
I can combine both drives as a fusion drive and that makes it look and act like 1 drive, but deep inside it still thinks its two. I even tried to partition the fusion drive, that took about 9 hours as it resized the physical storage volume, but it still acted as if it was two drives.
Please help. I can take advice from a PC or mac standpoint. This is too strange for me.
