[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1917069, member: 83420"] Carbon Copy Cloner (CCC) does indeed work with the latest OS. But there are things to remember: 1. It's best to have an SSD as your CCC External Destination Drive 2. The EHD needs to be formatted APFS 3. Every time there is an OS update (or Upgrade), CCC loses its ability to be bootable; although the data is safe and can easily be accessed. In order to make CCC bootable, you have to open CCC, Right click on the Destination hard drive (SSD is best as I said) and choose Legacy Bootable Copy Assistant. You then give CCC permission to wipe and reformat the Destination SSD, then it will make a brand new BU which is bootable. HTH Ian [/QUOTE]
