![]() ![]() Partition the drive into 2 partitions with Disk Utility (hopefully this will work without having to erase everything).Attach the external hard drive (Seagate) to your MBP. ![]() OPTION 1 (if you can't tinker with your external hard drive) And the third one is your new SSD (currently not in any case). The second one in your external hard drive (1TB Seagate with the Time Machine Backup on it). The first one inside your MBP (the internal hard drive). ![]() In regards to how to do it all (install Mac OS X onto your new SSD hard drive), I would consider this:Ĭurrently I assume you have three hard drives. This gives you most control over which files will be copied and which you don't need anymore, but it'll take you much longer. This would be the most straight forward solution, but it won't let you selectively pick and choose what to restore.Īn option still involving Time Machine would be to exclude locations that you don't want to backup and restore fully (such as the Applications folder) and just backup that folder manually onto some external hard drive.Ī clean way would be to just install Mac OS X fresh onto that hard drive and copy everything "by hand". You can "restore" to a new Mac during setup from a Time Machine Backup.
