I know there are post on how to copy drives but my situation is unique, I've never done this before and I want to make sure I do it the right way.
My wife has a white (7,1) macbook and I have a 2011 air.
I bought her 8gbs of ram and a 128gb owc ssd.
I got myself a 180 gb owc ssd for extra storage.
I want to copy the hard drives currently in the computer to the new ones.
Should I put the new drives in the enclosures and allow them to copy before installing them? Or should I install them and boot from the enclosure?
What is the best software to use? I've heard a lot about carbon copy but was curious if the license would work on both macs or if I'd have to buy 2 license. Or if disk utility is sufficient for this task?
