[QUOTE="Groovetube, post: 1407307, member: 223633"] Yes I read this. It seems odd to me, because generally when you place a clone over, it defragments the clone in the process. In fact, it's often been suggested to clone, then zero your drive, and put the clone back down on your zeroed drive to defrag. I've done this process and it does indeed speed everything up. SO I wonder about this. I'm not an expert here, but the idea I have to buy another ssd to clone etc seems odd. ANyway I did a fresh install for now to be sure. I had major problems with lion soon after it came out, this time I want to be sure to give it every chance to run. True. You can save the installer and install it on your other macs even if they don't have SL. (macs 'under your control' that is) [/QUOTE]
