Hello everyone

I just almost finished my Thinkpad t430 with high Sierra. The laptop works really good but the battery percentage in the upside bar that appears when it wants and the second 1TB HDD drive in a caddy.

- I tried patch ICH10R and nothing.
- Format with diskutil and nothing.

Battery problems:
- The only thing I can identify is when I put the AC adapter, the symbol in the bar doesn't show up.

I followed this guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-sierra-12-6-on-thinkpad-t430-almost-perfect.229103/

Thanks for all mates!

You have an old version of ACPIBatteryManager, v1.60. Current version is 1.90.
See guide for link:

Great!!

Battery is working perfect right now.

And the disk??? Why is happening this???

What disk issue?
What is the output of 'diskutil list'?

What error?
You have not initialized/partitioned disk2.

Read documentation for 'diskutil' with 'man diskutil'.

These are the errors.

When MacOs start always shows the first error.
The second error is using Disk utility . Never finish the erasing process.
The third is using diskutil in terminal. Stop at 50%.

Try partitioning in Windows (diskpart.exe) or Linux (gparted). Maybe a bad disk?

I could format it inside an usb case external and when I put again inside the caddy fail

Your diskutil list output proves the disk is not partitioned/formatted.
