UniBeast: Install macOS High Sierra on Any Supported Intel-based PC

But I can't because the external USB3 120GB SSD is not available or present.
Why not just connect the 120GB SSD up to an internal sata3 port ?

Sure, you're right!:) But does that mean it's not possible to do what I was trying? I'd like to do various and it would be easier if it were possible.

It doesn't appear you're having success installing to it as an external USB 3 drive. Why is it more difficult to simply connect it with an internal sata cable than to use a USB 3 adapter ?

no you're right, it's not, it's just got my curiosity now, and I'd like to know if there is a way round this or if it's impossible, like a limitation of Unibeast/clover or whatever. But in the meantime I'll do what you said, thanks again:)

I've installed 10.13.5 on an external USB drive clone, and then once everything is working okay, only then did I clone it back to my SATA internal drive. Reason I need to do it this way is if the upgrade fails, I want my computer to be unaffected so I can get back to work quickly and try again for another day.

In my case, I have to move my USB3 drive/enclosure and plug it into a USB2 port... only then was my High Sierra installation successful (can be seen by Clover, no KP, no hang in the middle of OSX upgrade, etc) When my enclosure was plugged into a USB3 port during installation/upgrade of HS, I encountered a lot of problems.

Interesting! It's strange because I've managed to get it to work now, the solution was to plug the external USB SSD into a USB3 port directly on the PC, instead of the hub where it was. It worked fine with the hub in Win7 and Sierra, but was not recognised by Clover HiSierra installer whilst in the hub?
