Hey Guys/(Experts),
Farfetched question but I'd like know if it's possible to access TDM (via holding the "T" key upon startup) if I'm booting from a blank HDD/SDD?
Absurd as it may sound, I want to clone my HDD into a SSD using the nifty TDM trick and a thunderbolt cable.
Here's my thought process:
I brought a new SSD and was thinking about placing that in a surrogate Macbook pro and afterwards, launching into TDM. From there, I'd connect the thunderbird cable to another Macbook pro (let's call this one the host) run CCC (Carbon Copy Cloner) and clone my hdd onto the surrogate MBP to the blank SSD.
Before undertaking this, I'd made sure the new SSD I brought is formatted accordingly and both Macbook Pros are compatible.
Would this (technically speaking) work? Hopefully I explained it in a way that makes some sense ...
