    I have it on a spare hard drive kicking around somewhere.. Works pretty well with my laptop (macOS El Capitan). Only issues I had were lack of WiFi kexts with my WiFi card, but I always have my laptop plugged into Ethernet so it didn't matter.

    I like macOS, but I like Windows just a tad more, so I decided to use my SSD for a Windows installation. Hackintoshes are a pain to make work if you didn't pre-buy your parts with making a Hackintosh as your priority, but worth the headache when you have it all running.

    i use a dell n5110 for it but i hate that my graphics card isnt supported Nvidia gt 525m but other than that it is super fast and responsive and actually helps me alot developing ios apps etc

    Sierra. The reason I didn't like it is because the drivers for my gpu are so outdated that games are barely playable. Low fps counts etc. Also I think that windows is easier to use (but I guess that's because I'm so used to it) Good luck with yours tho!
