Thanks. I put the probook drive on the mac again. The mac is disk0, the probook drive is disk1.
With the instructions you recommended in the post 1 here

I can't get past point 4, after "fdisk -e /dev/rdisk1" and enter terminal reads permission denied
Anyway, I used "sudo fdisk /dev/disk0x" as recommended and here's what I got. Can't see the "*"
