There’s about 500GB used on the drive and it took maybe an hour or 90 minutes total for the migration via wifi on my home network.ĭepending on what version of macOS you’re currently running…might need to weed out 32 bit apps…there’s an app that does that for you or you can use the System Information App and look at applications and sort by type. That’s the way I did MA from my 2015 rMBP to my M1 Pro MBP 14. However…you can use ethernet via your router.
Is the optimal approach as simple as just connecting the two machines with an ethernet cable? Or is there something else I should be considering?ĭon’t know if you can connect them directly to each other with ethernet…some hardware has the ability to do that but not all. (I will buy a new external drive to use for Time Machine on the new system.) I had originally assumed I would try to migrate from the Time Machine backup, but that would require one or two adaptors. I’m happy to run Migration Assistant rather than trying to clean install and do a partial migration… but I’m not sure what will be the fastest/ most reliable way to connect the two machines. Time Machine backup to hard drive attached to FW 800 Internal 1TB SSD (installed in 2017, formatted APFS) Mac OS High Sierra 10.13.6 (latest supported OS version) I have a mid-2010 27" iMac and am on the verge of ordering a Mac Studio and Studio Display to replace it. Branching off from the USB adaptor thread…
