Hey all, just put an OCZ SSD in the optical bay of my i7 13 inch yesterday and I wasn't having any problems yesterday but I noticed this morning when I went to wake it up from sleep it didn't come on, or at least the screen stayed black. I did a hard reset and then it came back. I then had a shower and got dressed, came back to it and the screen wouldn't come on again. Now, I haven't run a permission repair yet, but anyone got any idea about what else might fix this?

Make sure you've updated your firmware by checking software update. Then move the SSD to the hard drive bay and put the hard drive in the optical bay.

OK I'll switch drives. I figured I'd put the SSD in the optical drive bay just because that way if the bracket wasn't seated as tight it wouldn't be an issue.

Switching the SSD to the original HDD bay seems to have fixed it
