[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1938372, member: 204485"] Can I just say that “restoring” and “cloning” are two very different things. With earlier macOS versions “restoring” a bootable clone to a new Mac was a matter of cloning in reverse, with the same requirements. That is, remove old internal drive, replace with new (blank) internal drive, boot from CCC clone and “clone” the CCC copy to the new internal drive, not "restore". If the internal drive had data on it, just like creating a new bootable clone it must be erased at the media level first. Hence restoring would not be the correct process. [/QUOTE]
