[QUOTE="NSMacGuru, post: 1898391, member: 402209"] Just to ensure this doesn't slip past without examination.... The "of course": Well... [I]are you sure?[/I] I mean, for the past few years, upgrading from an older Mac to a new machine has usually meant moving from a spinning, large-capacity old-style hard drive to a solid-state (SSD) with much smaller capacity. Whenever folks ask me about "which Mac should I buy", I have them first look at their existing drive and see how much space they have free / are occupying, and use that as a guide to what configuration they should pick up in the new machine (as well as giving some hard thought to managing the offload of files to external storage, etc.). Never assume.... ;) [/QUOTE]
