Re: Upgrading Macbook Pro HD, cloning advice sought


Carlo,
Can you manually defrag your current disk, then do a bootable copy / clone of it?

Apple Help on Defrag

From the paucity of defraggers for Macs, this seems to be of almost no concern to most people -- unlike on Windows where defragging is a cure-all (placebo) for what ails ya. But here's the one I could find.

So, how about:
- Backup (in case defrag causes trouble)
- Defrag
- Clone to new drive
- Install new drive
