[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1575177, member: 131855"] Even with the newer machines I think a clone is a good idea. Even though the drive on some of the newer machines isn't user replaceable the clone is still useful. It's possible to boot from a clone and run that way until the drive can be repaired / replaced. I''ve run that way for several days at a time and there's no real reason it couldn't be done indefinitely. It's slower than the internal drive but that's about the only drawback for desktop Macs.
