Hey guys,
I just got a MCE optibay for my late 2011 unibody MBP. I currently have a 1TB WD hard drive and ordered a 256GB Samsung 840 Pro SSD. I was planning on putting the SSD in the main hard drive bay and the 1TB HD in the optibay.
My question is about cloning. I was planning on cloning the hard drive to the SSD to run OS X, apps, etc from the SSD, but I want to keep my music and pictures on the HD. Can I use Carbon copy cloner to only copy over everything except for my Music and Pictures folders? And then just leave those on the HD and delete everything else on there? I can't clone the entire HD to the SSD because it is larger than 256GB, which is why I want to only clone part of it.
Is there a better way to do this? Any thoughts and advice are greatly appreciated!
