[QUOTE="WasabiTaylor, post: 1014904, member: 10703"] Okay so my new hard drives came today and I've decided to go with CCC. I'm a little confused about one thing though. I didn't buy an external enclosure for my new hard drive, nor do I want to if I can avoid. I'm willing to put in double the time, not a problem for me. My understanding is that I will plug in my external HD and use CCC to clone my existing internal HD onto that. Then I'll install the new, blank internal HD. Where do I go from here? Do I turn on the computer and then put in my snow leopard disk or something? Then use the migrate assitant to bring the clone on the external HD onto the internal one? I can't seem to find a clear answer on this on CCC's FAQ site. Thanks for the help! Best, Taylor [/QUOTE]
