- 2015 Retina 4K iMac. Monterey. 8GB RAM. Crucial 500GB external SSD
I used peer to peer and wireless. transfer worked fine. took up to 2 hours I guess. not bad.
got to get use to wireless mouse and keyboard now. the smaller keyboard is rough, I hope I can get use to that. Im use to the full size keyboard with the number keys. not liking the smaller one so far. otherwise I'm glad I got this. other mac works fine, but was close to 11 years old. may use that for a backup drive or for playing around. may put snow lep back on it. its still a usable mac after 10 years. I have El Capitan on the old one. little shocked to see apple still including hard drives that are 5400rpm....
2 questions on the new mac:
1. how do I get a fresh copy of the OS since they don't include DVDs of it? do I need a fresh copy or just backup the entire drive to an external drive? what about making a disk image?
2. is the ram user up-gradable in this one? I have no idea. I got this mac:
