Hello, I disassembled my 2015 MacBook Pro and tried to reformat my original 500GB hard drive. The formatting process won't complete, and I'm getting error 69810.
Can I reformat my hard drive?
So this is put into an external enclosure...? You do not paint a very big picture
I might suspect—Apple's Disk Utility error \(69810\) indicates a problem during an erase operation, often caused by trying to erase the drive you're booted from, a corrupt drive, or a system-level issue.
