I have 2 hard drives installed in my G5. I'm using a Western Digital 70 gig 10,000 rpm for my main drive with all my apps on it. After weeding out stuff I don't really need on there I'm almost out of space. If I clone this to the other ATA internal hard drive which is much larger will I need to re-authorize all of my music apps and plug ins that originally needed to be authorized? And will there be any iLok issue for Wave plugs ins for example?
thanks,
scooter

Re: Cloning question
Better yet... use CarbonCopy Clone to make a disk image (DMG) of the current state of your HD. That'll preserve it for an emergency backup and not take up as much space as a complete clone.

And then do you use Apple'sDiskUtility "restore" ?MIDI Life Crisis wrote:Better yet... use CarbonCopy Clone to make a disk image (DMG) of the current state of your HD. That'll preserve it for an emergency backup and not take up as much space as a complete clone.
Or do you just double click that DMG ?
