[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1951988, member: 131855"] I was able to run Migration Assistant yesterday. When booted from one drive I could see the other drive. I could not make any changes/recover anything but that is because I was trying to take information from a drive with the newer OS to a drive with an older OS. You would be doing the opposite so it may work. It also presents Time Machine backups as a recovery option. If your Time Machine backup is current, that's probably the easiest way going forward.
