[QUOTE="Jack Orion, post: 1653375, member: 282495"] Hi there, I've just ordered a new Macbook Pro Retina 13" to replace my trusty 2009 Pro, and I'm going to give my old computer to my Dad when the new one arrives. I upgraded the ram and hard drive on the 2009 and kept the old 250gb in an external case to use for backing up my itunes library but, as my dad won't need the 500gb drive that's currently in the computer, I thought I'd put the old one back in. I was just trying to get my head around how I could do this - when I installed the new one I just restored from time machine but I want to give my Dad a completely fresh computer with nothing on it. Hope you guys can help! [/QUOTE]
