[QUOTE="iggibar, post: 1457863, member: 97843"] You might have hardware compatibility issues, and it could possibly not even start up from boot screen depending on what updates have been completed on the new old 15". You'll just have to see check it out yourself. It won't harm anything by simply swapping and investigating it. Though, best bet is to do a fresh install and transfer the old data via backups. Don't clone the disk if you want a 100% reliable installation from the get-go. [/QUOTE]
