[QUOTE="boston, post: 1583123, member: 276751"] thanks for the reply - any suggestions on which folders i would have to clone/transfer? also would i install mac OSX onto the drive before cloning or would it be installed during the initial clone from the original drive? My initial thought were to clone the 'application', 'library' and 'system' folders from the original drive as the 'users' folder seems to only contain downloads, documents music samples etc which would not be essential for a bootable drive. thanks again.
