[QUOTE="6string, post: 1014979, member: 120039"] After you have your new drive in, you can then boot from your external HD (holding option when you hear the chime) and select the external drive, open CCC in applications, and clone back to your new internal drive using the external drive as your source and the new internal drive as your target. Try the above before going to the following step! I'm not sure if you can just clone to a new internal drive as I don't think it will be visible, so you may need to boot off the SL disk (holding C down when you hear the chime) and just format the new drive before you do as macintosh os extended (journalled). If you do need to do this step, you select language after you boot off the SL disc then go to utilities in the menu bar>disk utility, select the new drive and format it. [/QUOTE]
