[QUOTE="SteveSawyer, post: 1939048, member: 415609"] To close the loop on this, I used an ethernet cable and everything went fine. Only took a couple of hours (only about 256GB on the internal SSD). The only adjustments I had to make was replacing a couple of apps I was running that were specific to Intel processors. Downloaded and installed the versions for Apple silicon and they're working fine. One thing I was unsure about was whether the external data drive that was included in the Time Machine backups would also be restored. It was not. I wonder if the new external SSD I had attached to the new Mini had been initialized, whether it would have restored that as well. My guess is no. But it was NBD as I just plugged that drive in and copied the contents to the new SSD and kept on keepin' on... PS - I like the yarmulkes on everyone's avatar.
