[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1882982, member: 38864"] There is plenty of reporting that you can boot these off an external [S]Firewire[/S] Thunderbolt drive. I'm going to trust that they know what they are talking about, seeing that they actually did it. I was a bit confused by Macworld's comment about a native 3.1 drive needed and thus my experiment with what I have, but I think that was an editorial flub. That's why you'd use CCC to clone your data. They can only do the data partition, but they are very clear that a bootable clone is possible. [/QUOTE]
