Macbook Pro will not boot

Question marks on screen from normal boot

Command R works and disk utility show this:



any ideas on how to proceed?

Are you showing all devices, or only volumes? Check if the 'Show All Devices' option is ticked...


Top disk is your regular/internal drive, but is normally called 'Macintosh HD' as the boot drive.
The MacOS Base Image is probably what the recovery process uses to boot.

Is that Samsung the original SSD, or was the original swapped out?

You could highlight the Samsung internal drive and run the First Aid option on the toolbar to see if that helps.

Sometimes when the SATA cables go faulty you'll get the symptoms you describe - not always an HD error but also check that the SSD is set as the startup disk.
